Nordic Pure 8x20x1M10MiniPleat-2 Merv 10 Mini Pleat Filter

Product Description

The NORDIC PURE 8x20x1M10MiniPleat-2 is a MERV 10 mini pleat air filter sold in a 2-pack, designed for residential and light commercial HVAC systems. Each filter carries a nominal size of 8x20x1 inches with an actual size of 7.69 x 19.69 x 0.75 inches. The mini pleat design incorporates 2.5 times more pleats than standard filters, expanding the available filter media surface area to improve particle capture without significantly restricting airflow. The polyester filter media is self-supporting and resists mold growth. A two-part, moisture-resistant beverage board frame keeps the assembly rigid through the full service cycle. Licensed HVAC technicians and knowledgeable homeowners both install this filter type.

This filter is suited for residential furnaces, central air handlers, and light commercial HVAC equipment requiring a nominal 8x20x1 slot. The MERV 10 rating makes it appropriate for environments where occupants want to reduce exposure to dust, pollen, pet dander, dust mites, lint, and mold spores. Typical replacement intervals are every 2 to 3 months depending on occupancy, pets, and local air quality conditions. During high-dust periods such as renovations or heavy pollen seasons, more frequent changes may be warranted.

Key Features

• 2.5 times more pleats than standard filters increases media surface area and extends filter life
• Actual size 7.69 x 19.69 x 0.75 inches ensures proper fit in nominal 8x20x1 filter slots
• Self-supporting polyester media resists mold growth and maintains shape throughout the service life
• Heavy-duty two-part moisture-resistant beverage board frame for structural integrity in humid conditions
• Manufactured in the USA

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement for residential and light commercial HVAC systems, furnaces, and air handlers that accept a nominal 8x20x1 inch filter. Always verify the actual filter slot dimensions against the actual size of 7.69 x 19.69 x 0.75 inches before installation, as nominal and actual filter dimensions commonly differ across equipment manufacturers.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed HVAC technicians or qualified homeowners. Before replacing the filter, set the HVAC system thermostat to the off position to prevent the air handler from drawing in an unseated filter during changeover. Confirm airflow direction arrows on the filter frame align with the direction of airflow toward the blower. Nominal filter sizes are not the same as actual sizes; always compare the actual slot measurement to the filter actual size of 7.69 x 19.69 x 0.75 inches before ordering.
