Nordic Pure 20x25x2PM12C-3 Merv 12 Carbon Air Filter 3 Pack

Product Description

The NORDIC PURE 20x25x2PM12C-3 is a MERV 12 pleated plus carbon air filter sold in a 3-pack for residential and light commercial HVAC systems. Each filter uses a dual-layer construction that fuses MERV 12-rated filtration media with an activated carbon layer. This design reduces flow restriction while providing 33% more surface area compared to single-layer pleated designs. The result is a filter that captures fine airborne particulates and simultaneously adsorbs odorous gases and volatile organic compounds (VOCs). The filter media is permanently electrostatically charged to attract and hold dust and allergens, and the antimicrobial media inhibits the growth of bacteria and mold on the filter surface.

This filter is suited for forced-air furnaces and central air conditioning systems in residential homes and offices. It performs well in environments with pets, smokers, or occupants with allergies or respiratory sensitivities where both particulate capture and odor control are priorities. The nominal size is 20x25x2 inches, with an actual size of 19.5 x 24.5 x 1.75 inches. The 3-pack format supports a standard 30-to-90-day replacement cycle, making it a practical bulk buy for seasonal filter changes or multi-unit properties.

Key Features

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement filter for residential and light commercial forced-air furnace and central air conditioning systems that accept a 20x25x2-inch nominal filter. Always verify the actual filter slot dimensions against the actual size of 19.5 x 24.5 x 1.75 inches before installation.

Installation Notes

Filter replacement is typically performed by HVAC technicians or knowledgeable homeowners. Power down or set the thermostat to off before opening the filter compartment to avoid drawing unfiltered air through the system during changeout. Confirm airflow direction arrows on the filter frame align with the direction of airflow toward the blower. Nordic Pure recommends replacement every 30 to 90 days depending on indoor air quality conditions and system runtime; higher-dust or high-occupancy environments will shorten effective filter life.
