Value Collection 102-740-010 Pleated Air Filter 24x24x1 Merv 8

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 102-740-010 is a MERV 8 pleated air filter designed for residential and light commercial heating and air conditioning systems. Built with a synthetic filter media and a moisture-resistant beverage board frame, it captures 35 to 45 percent of airborne particles at an initial resistance of 0.29 inches water gauge. The exclusive vForm self-supported pleat design maintains pleat spacing without a wire backing, delivering consistent airflow at up to 1,200 CFM. Licensed HVAC technicians and qualified installers use this filter as a standard-replacement media filter in forced-air systems.

This filter fits standard 24 x 24 x 1-inch filter slots in residential and light commercial HVAC air handlers and furnaces. The nominal dimensions are 24 x 24 x 1 inches, with actual dimensions of 23-3/8 x 23-3/8 x 1 inches. It is rated for use with heating and air conditioning units and is suited for applications requiring ASHRAE 52.2-2012-compliant filtration at a moderate efficiency level. The integrated frame adds structural rigidity for single-filter-slot installations.
