Nordic Pure 20x24x4PM10C-2 Pleated Carbon Air Filter Merv 10

Product Description

The NORDIC PURE 20x24x4PM10C-2 is a MERV 10 pleated plus carbon air filter sold in a 2-pack for residential and light commercial HVAC systems. It uses a dual-layer construction where MERV 10 rated filter media is fused with an activated carbon layer. This design reduces airflow restriction while increasing surface area by 33 percent compared to standard pleated filters. The carbon layer adsorbs odorous gases and volatile organic compounds (VOCs), while the electrostatically charged pleated media captures airborne particulates. A licensed HVAC technician or knowledgeable homeowner can install this filter as a direct drop-in replacement during routine system maintenance.

This filter is suited for residential furnaces, air handlers, and central air conditioning systems where both particulate filtration and odor control are required. It targets households with pets, smokers, or occupants sensitive to allergens. The filter captures lint, household dust, pollen, smoke particles, dust mites, pet dander, virus carriers, mold spores, and bacteria. At MERV 10, it is rated equivalent to MPR 1000, making it a step up from basic fiberglass or poly disposable filters. The antimicrobial filter media resists mold and bacterial growth within the filter itself. Filter replacement every 30 to 90 days is recommended to maintain system efficiency, and more frequent changes should be made during home renovations or high-dust periods.

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement for residential and light commercial furnaces, air handlers, and central HVAC systems accepting a 20x24x4 inch nominal filter slot. Actual size is 19.38 x 23.38 x 3.63 inches. Measure the existing filter or filter slot before ordering to confirm fit, as nominal and actual sizes differ across equipment.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by an HVAC technician or a knowledgeable homeowner. Power down the furnace or air handler at the disconnect or thermostat before replacing the filter. Confirm airflow direction by matching the arrow printed on the filter frame to the direction of airflow toward the blower. Filters should be replaced every 30 to 90 days under normal conditions; inspect monthly during high-use seasons or renovation work.
