Pro-source RDP.AA062025M08 Pleated Air Filter 20x25x6 Merv 8

Product Description

The PRO-SOURCE RDP.AA062025M08 is a pleated replacement air filter rated MERV 8, designed for residential and light commercial forced-air HVAC systems. It uses a synthetic filter media bonded to a rigid paperboard frame, capturing dust, pollen, mold spores, and other mid-range airborne particulates. The nominal size is 20 x 25 x 6 inches, making it compatible with deep-media filter housings and high-capacity filtration cabinets. At MERV 8, it offers a meaningful step up from fiberglass panel filters without the static pressure penalties associated with higher-rated media, keeping airflow balanced across the air handler or furnace blower.

This filter is suited for residential whole-home systems and light commercial applications where an extended-depth filter cabinet is installed. The 6-inch depth allows for greater media surface area than standard 1-inch or 4-inch filters, which extends service intervals and reduces how often the filter needs to be changed. It is typically installed by HVAC technicians during preventive maintenance visits or as part of a seasonal tune-up. The synthetic media construction resists moisture better than cellulose-based alternatives, which helps maintain structural integrity in systems with variable humidity levels.

Key Features

• MERV 8 rating captures dust, pollen, mold spores, and fine lint without excessive static pressure drop
• Synthetic pleated media provides better moisture resistance compared to paper or fiberglass media
• Rigid paperboard frame maintains shape and prevents bypass air leakage during the service life
• 6-inch nominal depth delivers extended media surface area for longer service intervals
• Integrated frame design for drop-in installation into standard deep-media filter cabinets
• Nominal dimensions 20 x 25 x 6 inches; actual dimensions 19.75 x 24.25 x 6.38 inches

Compatibility

Designed as a direct replacement for deep-media filter housings accepting a nominal 20 x 25 x 6 inch filter. Verify actual cabinet opening dimensions against the actual filter size of 19.75 x 24.25 x 6.38 inches before installation.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a qualified HVAC technician. Power down the air handler or furnace at the disconnect before servicing the filter cabinet. Confirm airflow direction arrows on the filter frame align with the system airflow direction before closing the cabinet door. Do not attempt to clean and reinstall this filter; it is a disposable replacement type and must be discarded when loaded.
