Nordic Pure 20x24x1M8MiniPleat-2 Merv 8 Mini Pleat Filter

Product Description

The NORDIC PURE 20x24x1M8MiniPleat-2 is a MERV 8 rated mini pleat air filter designed for forced-air HVAC systems in residential and light commercial applications. Sold in a 2-pack, each filter carries a nominal size of 20x24x1 inches with an actual size of 19.5 x 23.44 x 0.75 inches. The polyester filter media uses a mini pleat configuration with 2.5 times the pleat count of standard filters, increasing surface area for particle capture without creating excessive static pressure drop. A two-part, moisture-resistant beverage board frame holds the self-supporting media in place and resists deformation in humid conditions.

This filter fits standard 20x24x1 filter slots in residential gas furnaces, heat pumps, and central air handlers. It is also appropriate for light commercial rooftop units and fan coil applications where a nominal 20x24x1 slot is used. The MERV 8 rating makes it effective for environments with pets, renovation dust, or elevated pollen loads. Nordic Pure recommends replacement every 2 to 3 months depending on system runtime and indoor air quality conditions. Always verify the actual filter opening dimensions against the actual size before ordering, as nominal and actual sizes differ.

Designed as an OEM-style replacement filter for residential and light commercial forced-air systems accepting a nominal 20x24x1 inch filter. Verify the actual filter slot opening against the actual size of 19.5 x 23.44 x 0.75 inches before installation.

Installation Notes

Filter installation is performed by HVAC technicians or qualified building maintenance personnel. Always set the system thermostat to off and confirm the air handler has stopped before removing the old filter. Install the new filter with the airflow direction arrow on the frame pointing toward the blower, away from the return air duct. Dispose of the used filter in a sealed bag to contain captured particulates.
