Built with a wire-backed synthetic media and a beverage board frame, this filter delivers 80 to 85 percent particle capture efficiency at a maximum face velocity of 500 feet per minute (FPM) and a maximum airflow of 825 CFM. The nominal size is 16 x 20 x 2 inches, with actual dimensions of 15.5 x 19.5 x 1.75 inches. It carries ASHRAE 52.2 and UL 900 certifications and qualifies for LEED point contribution. HVAC technicians and mechanical contractors install this filter as part of routine preventive maintenance or system commissioning.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis filter is suited for forced-air systems in residential, light commercial, and institutional settings where improved indoor air quality and higher filtration efficiency are required. The MERV 13 rating targets fine particulates including dust, pollen, mold spores, and fine combustion particles. The wire-backed pleated construction maintains media integrity under higher static pressure, making it appropriate for systems with variable-speed air handlers or high-static duct configurations. Maximum operating temperature is 150 degrees F. Per the manufacturer, this filter is compatible with any unit accepting a 16 x 20 x 2 inch nominal filter.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMERV 13 efficiency rating with 80 to 85 percent particle capture efficiency\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWire-backed pleated synthetic media maintains pleat geometry under airflow\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBeverage board frame with integrated construction for secure slot fit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRated to 825 CFM and 500 FPM maximum face velocity\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMeets ASHRAE 52.2 and UL 900 standards; eligible for LEED credit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaximum operating temperature of 150 degrees F\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use with any HVAC unit accepting a nominal 16 x 20 x 2 inch pleated filter.

Always power down the air handler and set the thermostat to the off position before replacing any air filter. Confirm airflow direction arrow on the filter frame aligns with system airflow toward the blower. Follow equipment manufacturer recommendations for filter replacement intervals; MERV 13 filters in high-load environments may require more frequent changes to prevent excessive static pressure drop.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNominal Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 16 x 20 x 2 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eActual Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 15.5 x 19.5 x 1.75 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMERV Rating\u003c\/strong\u003e: 13\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eParticle Capture Efficiency\u003c\/strong\u003e: 80 to 85 percent\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Airflow\u003c\/strong\u003e: 825 CFM\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Face Velocity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 500 FPM\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInitial Resistance\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.25 in. w.g. at 375 FPM; 0.39 in. w.g. at 500 FPM\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinal Resistance\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.0 in. w.g.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFilter Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Wire-Backed Pleated\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMedia Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Synthetic\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFrame Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Beverage Board\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIntegrated Frame\u003c\/strong\u003e: Yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Temperature\u003c\/strong\u003e: 150 degrees F\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.83 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandards\u003c\/strong\u003e: ASHRAE 52.2, UL 900\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: PRO-SOURCE\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: PRO21519\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"PRO-SOURCE","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51737658982706,"sku":"PRO21519","price":312.91,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/9a7e696374007dfa3a875ac71316a55d.jpg?v=1788791975","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/pro-source-pro21519-pleated-air-filter-16x20x2-merv-13","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
