Pro-source PRO10462 Pleated Air Filter 20x25x2 Merv 10

Product Description

The PRO-SOURCE PRO10462 is a wire-backed pleated air filter rated MERV 10 with 55% particle capture efficiency. Built with a synthetic media and a paperboard frame, it is designed for standard forced-air HVAC systems where improved filtration over basic fiberglass panels is needed. The filter handles airflow up to 1,750 CFM at a maximum face velocity of 500 feet per minute (FPM), with an initial resistance of 0.24 inches water gauge at that rated velocity. HVAC technicians and facilities maintenance personnel install this filter as a drop-in replacement during routine service calls or filter change-outs.

This filter is suited for residential and light commercial forced-air applications including gas furnaces, air handlers, and heat pumps that accept a 20 x 25 x 2 inch filter. The MERV 10 rating makes it appropriate for environments where dust, pollen, mold spores, and fine particulates need to be controlled without significantly restricting system airflow. The wire-backing reinforces the pleated media against collapse at higher velocities, making it a reliable choice for systems with variable-speed or higher-static blowers.

Key Features

• MERV 10 rating with 55% particle capture efficiency per ASHRAE 52.2-2012
• Wire-backed pleated synthetic media resists media collapse at velocities up to 500 FPM
• Rated for up to 1,750 CFM airflow
• Low initial resistance of 0.24 inches water gauge at 500 FPM
• Paperboard frame with integrated construction for secure fit in standard filter tracks
• Rated for continuous use up to 200 degrees F

Compatibility

Designed for use with any forced-air HVAC unit accepting a nominal 20 x 25 x 2 inch filter. Actual dimensions are 19-1/2 x 24-1/2 x 1-3/4 inches.

Installation Notes

A licensed HVAC technician or qualified maintenance professional should shut off the air handler or furnace at the equipment disconnect before replacing this filter. Verify the actual cabinet opening dimensions match the filter actual size before installation. Slide the filter into the track with the airflow arrow pointing toward the blower. Follow local mechanical codes and the equipment manufacturer's recommended replacement intervals based on measured static pressure rise or visual inspection.
