Trion ABC16X25X3 Media Air Filter Cabinet 16x25x3 in

Product Description

The TRION ABC16X25X3 is a media air filter cabinet designed for residential HVAC return air applications using 3-inch media filters. The cabinet measures 16 inches by 25 inches by 3 inches and is built in the Air Bear Cub style, a widely recognized form factor in residential filtration upgrades. This cabinet replaces standard 1-inch filter slots with a deeper media housing, allowing higher-efficiency filter media to be used without restricting airflow beyond system design limits. Installation is typically performed by a licensed HVAC technician as part of a return air duct modification or air handler upgrade.

This cabinet is suited for residential forced-air systems where improved filtration performance and extended filter service intervals are priorities. The 3-inch media depth allows for greater filter surface area compared to standard 1-inch filter housings, which means longer intervals between filter changes and better particle capture efficiency. Typical installations involve cutting into an existing return air duct plenum or wall cavity and mounting the cabinet flush with the return air grille opening. This product is intended for return air applications only and is not rated for supply-side installation.

Key Features

• Air Bear Cub style housing for compatibility with common 3-inch media filter configurations

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement cabinet for residential HVAC return air installations using Air Bear Cub style 3-inch media filters in a 16 x 25-inch opening.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed HVAC technician. Power down the air handler and set the thermostat to off before beginning any ductwork modification. The return air duct opening must be sized to match the cabinet dimensions precisely to prevent bypass air leakage around the filter media. Verify that the installed media filter is seated fully and the cabinet door or cover is secured before restoring system power.
