Nordic Pure 20x25x5ABPCP-2 Carbon Pleated Filter Merv 8

Product Description

The NORDIC PURE 20x25x5ABPCP-2 is a pure carbon pleated furnace and air handler filter rated MERV 8, sold in a 2-pack. It is designed as a direct replacement for Air Bear and Air Bear Cub media cabinets that accept a nominal 20x25x5 filter. The actual dimensions are 19.75 x 24.25 x 4.875 inches, fitting the 4 7/8-inch depth slot. Carbon-impregnated media captures odors, VOCs, pollen, dust mite debris, pet dander, mold spores, and smoke particles in a single pass. The frame is constructed from moisture-resistant beverage board with foam tape seals on two sides and an internal metal mesh support grid bonded to the pleats.

This filter is suited for residential applications including single-family homes and apartments where odor control is a priority alongside standard particulate filtration. It also functions as a pre-filter in light commercial or industrial settings where airborne odors and VOCs require management before air reaches downstream equipment. HVAC technicians and property maintenance professionals typically install this filter during scheduled maintenance on forced-air heating and cooling systems equipped with 5-inch media cabinets. It is comparable in performance to filters rated MPR 600.

Compatibility

Designed as a replacement filter for Air Bear and Air Bear Cub media cabinet systems accepting a nominal 20x25x5 filter with a 4 7/8-inch actual depth. Verify your cabinet's actual slot depth before installation, as depth variance between manufacturers is common in the 4-inch to 5-inch filter category.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed HVAC technicians or qualified maintenance personnel. Set the thermostat to the off position and shut down the air handler before opening the media cabinet. Confirm the actual slot dimensions of your cabinet match the filter's actual size of 19.75 x 24.25 x 4.875 inches before inserting. Follow the airflow direction arrow printed on the filter frame, and reseal the cabinet door fully to prevent bypass air.
