Nordic Pure 20x30x1M10MiniPleat-3 Merv 10 Mini Pleat Filter

Product Description

The NORDIC PURE 20x30x1M10MiniPleat-3 is a MERV 10 mini pleat air filter sold in a 3-pack for residential and light commercial HVAC systems. The filter carries an actual size of 19.75 x 29.75 x 0.75 inches, fitting nominal 20x30x1 filter slots. The polyester filter media uses 2.5 times more pleats than standard filters, increasing surface area for improved particle capture while maintaining airflow. The media is self-supporting and resists mold growth. A heavy-duty, moisture-resistant beverage board frame provides structural integrity across the filter's service life. A MERV 10 rating is equivalent to MPR 800-1000 and is appropriate for environments where capturing mid-range airborne particulates is a priority.

This filter is suited for residential forced-air furnaces, air handlers, and central AC systems using nominal 20x30x1 filter slots. It is also appropriate for light commercial applications where similar filter housings are used. The filter targets lint, dust, pollen, pet dander, dust mites, and mold spores. The 3-pack format supports a multi-month maintenance rotation. Under typical residential conditions, a replacement interval of every 2 to 3 months is appropriate, though high-dust environments, ongoing construction, or heavy pet dander loads may require more frequent changes.

Key Features

• MERV 10 rating captures mid-range airborne particles including pollen, pet dander, dust mites, and mold spores

• Actual size 19.75 x 29.75 x 0.75 inches for accurate fitment in nominal 20x30x1 filter housings
• Self-supporting polyester media resists mold growth and maintains media integrity throughout service life
• Heavy-duty, moisture-resistant two-part beverage board frame provides structural support in high-airflow applications
• Manufactured in the USA

Compatibility

Designed for HVAC systems using nominal 20x30x1 filter slots. Always verify against the actual filter size of 19.75 x 29.75 x 0.75 inches before installation, as nominal and actual filter dimensions frequently differ across equipment models.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by HVAC technicians or qualified service personnel during routine filter maintenance. Always shut down the air handler or furnace at the unit disconnect or thermostat before removing the existing filter. Confirm airflow direction arrow on the filter frame aligns with the direction of airflow toward the blower. Measure the existing filter housing before ordering to verify actual-size fitment rather than relying on the nominal size printed on the old filter.
