Nordic Pure 20x25x1M14+C-12 Pleated Air Filter Merv 14

Product Description

The NORDIC PURE 20x25x1M14+C-12 is a MERV 14 pleated air filter with an integrated activated carbon layer, sold in a 12-pack. The electrostatically charged synthetic filter media captures fine airborne particulates including dust, pollen, mold spores, pet dander, smoke, dust mite debris, smog, and bacteria. The activated carbon panel adsorbs odorous gases and volatile organic compounds (VOCs), delivering both high-efficiency mechanical filtration and odor control in a single filter. Licensed HVAC technicians and knowledgeable homeowners install this filter in forced-air heating and cooling systems rated to handle MERV 14 filtration resistance.

This filter is suited for residential and light-commercial forced-air HVAC systems that require superior filtration with odor control. The nominal size of 20x25x1 inches fits a wide range of standard filter slots, though the actual dimensions are 19.5 x 24.5 x 0.75 inches. It is well matched to newer high-efficiency systems designed to accept MERV 14 and above filters. Because of the higher pressure drop associated with MERV 14 media, the installed system should be rated to handle this filtration level before use. Replacement is recommended every 30 to 90 days depending on environmental conditions and system load.

Key Features

• MERV 14 electrostatically charged synthetic media captures dust, pollen, mold spores, pet dander, smoke, bacteria, and smog particles
• Activated carbon flat-panel layer adsorbs odorous gases and VOCs for combined particulate and odor control
• Hypoallergenic, antimicrobial filter media resists mold and bacterial growth within the filter
• Heavy-duty moisture-resistant beverage board frame with metal mesh support grid bonded to pleats
• MERV 14 rating is equivalent to MPR 2800
• Made in the USA

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement pleated air filter for residential and light-commercial forced-air HVAC systems with a standard 20x25x1 inch filter slot. Verify actual filter opening dimensions against the actual size of 19.5 x 24.5 x 0.75 inches before installation. System must be rated to handle MERV 14 filtration resistance.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed HVAC technicians or qualified service personnel. Power down the air handler or furnace at the disconnect or breaker before changing the filter. Note the airflow direction arrow printed on the filter frame and orient the filter accordingly when sliding it into the cabinet. Because MERV 14 media creates higher static pressure than lower-rated filters, confirm the blower and ductwork system are rated for this restriction level prior to installation.
