Nordic Pure 20x24x4M12-2 Pleated Air Filter Merv 12

Product Description

The NORDIC PURE 20x24x4M12-2 is a MERV 12 pleated air filter sold in a 2-pack, designed for residential and light commercial forced-air HVAC systems. The filter uses electrostatically charged synthetic media to capture airborne particulates on each pass. It captures more than 90% of 3.0-10.0 micron contaminants and up to 90% of 1.0-3.0 micron contaminants, covering lint, dust, pollen, pet dander, smoke particles, dust mites, mold spores, virus carriers, and bacteria. The nominal size is 20x24x4 with an actual size of 19.38 x 23.38 x 3.63 inches. A metal mesh support grid bonds to the pleats for structural integrity, and the frame is constructed from heavy-duty, moisture-resistant beverage board.

This filter is suited for residential homes and light commercial spaces where moderate-to-high air quality is a priority, particularly for occupants dealing with allergies or asthma. The MERV 12 rating makes it appropriate for systems that can handle the corresponding static pressure, including standard residential gas furnaces, heat pumps, and central air conditioning systems. Installers and homeowners benefit from the antimicrobial filter media, which resists bacterial and mold growth within the filter itself. Nordic Pure recommends changing the filter every 3 to 6 months depending on indoor and outdoor conditions, with more frequent changes during renovation or high-dust periods.

Compatibility

Designed as a replacement pleated air filter for residential and light commercial forced-air HVAC systems with a 20x24x4 nominal filter slot. Actual dimensions are 19.38 x 23.38 x 3.63 inches; verify the actual slot dimensions before installation, as nominal and actual filter sizes differ across equipment manufacturers.

Installation Notes

Filter installation is typically performed by HVAC technicians or qualified homeowners. Always shut down the air handler or furnace at the system disconnect or thermostat before removing the old filter. Confirm airflow direction arrows on the filter frame align with the direction of airflow toward the blower. Because actual filter dimensions differ from nominal size, measure the existing filter or filter slot before ordering to confirm fit.
