Pro-source PRO10475 Pleated Air Filter Merv 8 10x30x1

Product Description

The PRO-SOURCE PRO10475 is a MERV 8 pleated air filter designed for residential and light commercial HVAC applications. It measures 10 x 30 x 1 inches nominal (9.5 x 29.5 x 0.75 inches actual) and uses a wire-backed synthetic media bonded to a sturdy paperboard frame. The wire backing holds pleat geometry under airflow, maintaining consistent filtration across the filter face. Rated at 35% particle capture efficiency per ASHRAE 52.2-2012, it captures dust, pollen, lint, and similar mid-range particulates. Maximum airflow is 625 CFM at a face velocity of 300 feet per minute, with an initial resistance of 0.14 inches water gauge at rated velocity.

This filter is suited for forced-air heating and cooling systems, air handlers, and packaged units in residential homes, multi-family buildings, and light commercial spaces. The MERV 8 rating makes it a solid step up from fiberglass panel filters without the pressure drop associated with higher-efficiency ratings. It is typically installed by HVAC technicians during routine maintenance or filter change-out service calls, and is also within the reach of facilities maintenance personnel. The manufacturer lists compatibility as any unit, making it broadly applicable across standard 1-inch filter rack configurations.

• Wire-backed pleated synthetic media maintains pleat shape under rated airflow
• Paperboard frame provides structural rigidity in standard 1-inch filter racks
• Rated to 625 CFM at a maximum face velocity of 300 FPM
• Initial resistance of 0.14 inches water gauge at 300 FPM; final resistance of 1.0 inches water gauge
• Rated for continuous service up to 200 degrees F

Compatibility

Designed for use with any forced-air unit accepting a standard 1-inch nominal filter. Nominal dimensions are 10 x 30 x 1 inches; confirm actual filter rack opening against actual dimensions of 9.5 x 29.5 x 0.75 inches before ordering.

Installation Notes

Power down or set the thermostat to off before opening the filter access panel to prevent unfiltered air bypass during changeout. Install the filter with the airflow arrow on the frame pointing toward the blower or furnace. Dispose of the used filter in a sealed bag to contain captured particulates. Follow local building codes and equipment manufacturer service intervals for filter replacement frequency.
