Nordic Pure 20x24x1M16-4 Pleated Air Filter Merv 16

Product Description

The NORDIC PURE 20x24x1M16-4 is a MERV 16 pleated air filter sold in a 4-pack, designed for residential and commercial HVAC systems where high-efficiency particulate capture is required. The filter uses an advanced pleated media design with increased surface area to capture extremely fine particles - including smoke, bacteria, mold spores, pet allergens, and ultrafine pollutants - while maintaining low airflow resistance. The actual dimensions are 19.5 x 23.44 x 0.75 inches, fitting nominal 20x24x1 filter slots. A heavy-duty 2-part reinforced frame resists bending, bowing, and wear. Licensed HVAC technicians and facilities maintenance professionals are the primary installers.

This filter fits standard 1-inch nominal filter slots in residential forced-air furnaces, air handlers, and central air conditioning systems, as well as light commercial HVAC equipment requiring high-efficiency filtration. It is appropriate for environments sensitive to airborne contaminants, including homes with allergy sufferers, medical offices, and spaces where indoor air quality standards are elevated. Each box contains 4 filters. Nordic Pure recommends replacing 1-inch filters every 30 to 90 days depending on environmental conditions and air quality demands.

Installation Notes

HVAC technicians and qualified maintenance personnel should power down the air handler or furnace before replacing the filter. Verify the airflow direction arrow on the filter frame aligns with the direction of airflow toward the blower. Check that the filter slot accommodates the actual depth of 0.75 inches before installation. Follow local codes and manufacturer service intervals for filter maintenance schedules.
