Nordic Pure 25x25x2PM12C-3 Merv 12 Carbon Air Filter 3 Pack

Product Description

The NORDIC PURE 25x25x2PM12C-3 is a MERV 12 pleated air filter with an activated carbon layer, designed for residential and light-commercial HVAC systems. The dual-material construction fuses a MERV 12-rated filtration layer directly with activated carbon media, which reduces flow restriction and adds approximately 33 percent more surface area compared to single-layer filters. This combination captures fine particulates while the carbon layer adsorbs odorous gases and volatile organic compounds (VOCs). The filter measures 24.5 x 24.5 x 1.75 inches actual size and is sold in a 3-pack. It is installed by HVAC technicians and knowledgeable homeowners performing routine filter maintenance.

This filter fits standard 25x25x2 filter slots in residential forced-air furnaces and central air conditioning systems. It is well suited for households requiring both high particulate filtration and odor control - including homes with pets, smokers, or occupants with allergies. The activated carbon media targets smoke particles, lint, household dust, pollen, dust mites, pet dander, virus carriers, mold spores, bacteria, and allergens. The MERV 12 rating is comparable to filters rated MPR 1500-1900, making it a direct performance substitute for filters in that range. Replacement is recommended every 30 to 90 days depending on indoor and outdoor air quality conditions.

Compatibility

Designed as a replacement filter for residential and light-commercial forced-air furnaces and central air conditioning systems with a nominal 25x25x2 filter slot. Actual size is 24.5 x 24.5 x 1.75 inches - verify the actual opening dimensions before installation, as nominal and actual filter sizes frequently differ across equipment brands.

Installation Notes

Power down the furnace or air handler at the thermostat or disconnect before removing the old filter. Confirm airflow direction arrows on the filter frame align with the direction of airflow toward the blower. The actual size of 24.5 x 24.5 x 1.75 inches should be matched to the measured slot opening, not assumed from the nominal label. Follow the equipment manufacturer's recommended filter replacement interval, and inspect filters more frequently during high-use seasons or periods of renovation activity.
