Pro-source PRO14969 Pleated Air Filter 24x24x12 Merv 11

Product Description

The PRO-SOURCE PRO14969 is a MERV 11 rigid cell pleated air filter built for commercial and industrial air handling applications where high dust-holding capacity and structural integrity are required. Constructed with a fiberglass pleated media and a galvanized steel frame, it handles airflow up to 500 CFM and withstands operating temperatures up to 180 degrees F. Nominal dimensions are 24 x 24 x 12 inches with actual dimensions of 23.38 x 23.38 x 11.375 inches. The integrated frame maintains filter geometry under sustained airflow and differential pressure. Licensed HVAC technicians and building maintenance engineers are the primary installers of this filter type.

This filter is suited for commercial HVAC systems, industrial ventilation units, and large air handling units where extended filter service intervals and moderate-to-high particulate capture efficiency are priorities. The 12-inch depth provides substantial media surface area, making it appropriate for systems with higher static pressure budgets and longer replacement cycles. It is also used in cleanroom anteroom applications, manufacturing facilities, and commercial buildings requiring MERV 11 filtration per ASHRAE 52.2 standards.

Key Features

• MERV 11 efficiency rating captures particles in the 1.0 to 3.0 micron range at moderate-to-high efficiency
• Rigid cell fiberglass media maintains pleat geometry and resists collapse under sustained airflow
• Galvanized steel frame provides structural support and corrosion resistance in humid environments
• Integrated frame design eliminates the need for a separate holding frame in compatible filter housings
• Rated to 180 degrees F maximum operating temperature, suitable for high-heat air handling environments
• UL 900 listed for fire resistance in air distribution equipment

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement rigid cell pleated filter for commercial and industrial air handling units accepting a 24 x 24 x 12 inch filter with an integrated frame.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified HVAC technician. De-energize the air handling unit and verify airflow has stopped before removing the existing filter or accessing the filter bank. Confirm the actual filter opening dimensions match the actual filter size of 23.38 x 23.38 x 11.375 inches before installation. Verify airflow direction arrows on the filter frame align with the system airflow direction, and check that the filter housing seals properly to prevent bypass around the filter media.
