Nordic Pure 8x20x1M10-2 Merv 10 Pleated Air Filter 2 Pack

Product Description

The NORDIC PURE 8x20x1M10-2 is a MERV 10 pleated air filter sold in a 2-pack for use in residential and light commercial HVAC systems. Each filter measures 7.69 x 19.69 x 0.75 inches actual size with an 8x20x1 nominal rating. The electrostatically charged, hypoallergenic filter media captures pollen, dust, pet dander, mold spores, smoke particles, bacteria, virus carriers, and other airborne contaminants. The heavy-duty beverage board frame is moisture resistant, and the media is treated to resist bacterial and mold growth on the filter surface itself. This filter rates at MERV 10, equivalent to MPR 1000 on competing rating scales, making it a solid choice for households with mild allergy concerns.

This filter fits standard 8x20x1 nominal filter slots in residential furnaces, central air handlers, and split-system air conditioners. It is appropriate for both home and light commercial environments where improved particulate filtration is needed beyond basic fiberglass media. ASHRAE MERV 10 performance means the filter captures finer particles than lower-rated alternatives while still maintaining reasonable airflow across typical residential HVAC equipment. Replacement every 1 to 3 months is standard practice, with more frequent changes recommended in homes with pets or occupants sensitive to airborne allergens.

Compatibility

Designed as a direct replacement for any residential or light commercial HVAC system that accepts a nominal 8x20x1 air filter. Verify the actual slot dimensions against the actual filter size of 7.69 x 19.69 x 0.75 inches before installation, as nominal and actual sizes differ.

Installation Notes

HVAC technicians and qualified service personnel should power down the air handler or furnace at the disconnect before replacing the filter. Confirm airflow direction arrows on the filter frame align with the direction of airflow toward the blower. Filters should be seated fully in the rack with no gaps around the frame to prevent bypass. Follow local mechanical codes and manufacturer service intervals when determining replacement frequency.
