Nordic Pure 24x30x1M12MiniPleat-2 Merv 12 Mini Pleat Filter

Product Description

The NORDIC PURE 24x30x1M12MiniPleat-2 is a MERV 12-rated mini pleat air filter designed for residential and light commercial HVAC systems, including forced-air furnaces and central air conditioning units. Sold in a 2-pack, each filter measures 23.5 x 29.5 x 0.75 inches actual size, fitting nominal 24x30x1 filter slots. The self-supporting synthetic polyester fiber media carries a MERV 12 rating, equivalent to MPR 1500-1900, making it effective at capturing fine particulates including smoke particles, mold spores, and virus carriers. The mini pleat design delivers 2.5 times more pleats than standard filters, increasing surface area and extending service life while maintaining acceptable static pressure drop across the unit.

This filter fits standard 24x30x1 nominal filter housings found in residential forced-air furnaces, air handlers, and central AC systems. It is suited for homes with pets, allergy sensitivities, or elevated dust loads, as well as during renovation or construction activity where airborne particulate levels are temporarily elevated. The 2-pack quantity supports a full replacement cycle when changing filters on the recommended 2-to-3-month interval. HVAC technicians and homeowners maintaining residential equipment will find the actual dimensions and MERV 12 rating clearly suited for applications requiring filtration above the standard MERV 8-to-11 range.

Key Features

• MERV 12 rating captures smoke, pet dander, mold spores, pollen, dust mites, and virus carriers
• 2.5 times more pleats than standard filters increases surface area and particle capture efficiency
• Actual size 23.5 x 29.5 x 0.75 inches ensures proper fit in nominal 24x30x1 housings
• Self-supporting synthetic polyester fiber media maintains pleat structure without a wire backing
• Heavy-duty 2-part moisture-resistant beverage board frame resists deformation in high-humidity air streams
• Manufactured in the USA

Compatibility

Designed to fit nominal 24x30x1 filter slots. Actual dimensions are 23.5 x 29.5 x 0.75 inches. Always verify the actual filter cavity measurement against these dimensions before installation, as nominal and actual sizes frequently differ across HVAC equipment manufacturers.

Installation Notes

Power down the furnace or air handler at the disconnect or thermostat before removing the old filter. Confirm airflow direction arrows on the filter frame align with the direction of airflow toward the blower. HVAC technicians should verify the actual slot dimensions match the 23.5 x 29.5 x 0.75 inch actual size, not the nominal size, to avoid bypass air gaps around the filter frame. Replace on a 2-to-3-month interval, or more frequently in high-dust environments.
