Pro-source 16282 Pleated Panel Air Filter

Product Description

The PRO-SOURCE 16282 is a pleated panel air filter designed for use in forced-air HVAC systems. Pleated panel filters increase surface area compared to flat-panel designs, which improves particulate capture efficiency while maintaining adequate airflow across the system. This filter is a standard-format replacement unit suited for residential and light commercial air handling equipment. Installation and replacement are typically performed by HVAC technicians or qualified service personnel as part of routine preventive maintenance.

Pleated panel filters of this type are commonly installed in residential furnaces, air handlers, and packaged HVAC units. They serve as the primary filtration stage protecting the blower, heat exchanger, and evaporator coil from airborne dust, debris, and particulates. This unit ships in a package quantity of one and is ordered in single-unit increments.

Key Features

• Pleated media design for increased filtration surface area versus flat-panel filters
• Panel-style form factor for drop-in replacement in standard filter tracks
• Single-unit packaging for straightforward stock replenishment
• Suitable for residential and light commercial forced-air HVAC applications

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement pleated panel filter for use in residential and light commercial forced-air furnaces and air handlers with standard panel filter slots.

Installation Notes

Filter replacement is a routine HVAC maintenance task performed by licensed technicians or qualified service personnel. Always power down the air handling unit at the disconnect or thermostat before removing or installing the filter. Confirm the airflow direction arrow on the filter frame aligns with the direction of airflow through the system before securing the filter in the track. Follow local mechanical codes and the equipment manufacturer guidelines for recommended filter replacement intervals.
