With each cycle through the filter, your indoor air becomes a little bit cleaner.

Question:	Is filtrete allergic to using the better known merv rating system
Answer:	I am not sure I fully understand your question. When it comes to merv rating you need to balance your filter needs/wants vs efficiency. The higher the merv the smaller the particles filtered, but the higher your power use as your air handler has to work harder to pull through the finer filter. According to the USGBC LEED standards, a minimum of merv 13 must be used for all recirculated air.Merv 6 = 300 mprMerv 8 = 600 mprMerv 11 = 1000-1200 mpr (this filter)Merv 13 = 1500-1900 mpr.I chose this filter because it seemed like a reasonable compromise of filtration, efficiency and cost.I hope this helps. :)

User questions & answers

Question:	How many pleats per foot
Answer:	I have 2 5T units in house that uses this filter and after changing many various Mfr filters which all seemed to work comparably well and about the same in last 21+ years, never once did I ever think about counting pleats. All I ever counted was the price! Did I miss something?? Bill
Question:	Filtrete has 40 pleats per foot. The more pleats, the more filter is being used in the product and the more surface is available for removing crap
Answer:	Yep
Question:	does this product contain any fiberglass and can it be used in mask filtration
Answer:	The N95 masks are the equivalent to a MERV 16. Our MERV 13 filters are made with a 100% synthetic filter media with a wire backing glued in a cardboard frame. There are no harmful materials in the MERV 13 media itself. If you use the media it will not filter as small of a partical as the N95 but it help filter out 1.0–0.3 μm particle size. These filters can filter bacteria, droplet nuclei (sneeze), cooking oil, most smoke and insecticide dust, most face powder, and most paint pigments.
Question:	Excuse me .. what it merv means
Answer:	...Griffen, he was the original o.g, the triple diple o.g, the double o. capital .g, the Ompa Oprah talk show host of his time! HEEEERRRRRRREEEEE'SSSSS...MERV!! I'm just kidding! It stands for; "Minimum Efficiency Rating Value" There are 1-16 ratings with "1" being the worst and " 16" of course being the best! I tend to get the MERV11 in a 4" thick pleated filter because it traps everything I'm most worried about like dust, mites, pet dander, bacterias, allergic pollen and when my daughter cooks or burns something in the oven, kitchen smoke! Keeping all that "sheet" out of the distribution process of hot/cold air being deposited throughout the many registers in my house not only protects my family, but it helps to prolong the system and house by keeping it all clean and dust free!! Don't skimp when it comes to selecting that MERV rated filter or you may end up replacing more than just the filter. Read the specs on the system you own to be sure you're using the correct size filter and change it every six months or less depending on your environment.

Why MERV rating and filter thickness is important?

MERV stands for Minimum Efficiency Reporting Value and is an industry standard to rate a filters efficacy. We recognize this is not very easy to understand for consumers, so we developed our simple to use application naming system. Simply pick the filter that suits your needs.

Allergies, pets, odors and smoking all can greatly affect the quality of your indoor air. Discount Filters offers many different types of air filters to help you breathe easier and choose the correct filter based on your specific needs.

Ensuring that your filter fits properly in your HVAC system means making sure that you have not only the right length and width, but also the thickness of your filter.

Most standard air filters are 1 - 2 inches in thickness. Whereas media filters are typically 3 to 5 inches in thickness. The best way to measure your air filter size is to get out the measuring tape and measure it directly. Also your current filter probably has the dimensions printed on the frame.

Product description

Nordic Pure MERV 12 Pleated AC Furnace Air Filters provide exceptional filtration for both home and commercial environments. Each time air passes through a Nordic Pure pleated furnace air filter, lint, dust, pollen, bacteria, pet dander, dust mites, mold spores, smoke particles, virus carriers, allergens and other contaminants are removed. MERV 12 furnace filters are comparable to HVAC filters with the rating of MPR 1500-1900 or FPR 9. While different companies use different scales to measure the air filter’s efficiency, Nordic Pure chose to follow the industry standard, MERV, as developed by ASHRAE (the American Society of Heating, Refrigeration and Air Conditioner Engineers). No matter the name of the rating, the efficiency of all air filters is rated according to the same criteria as set forth by ASHRAE. Nordic Pure furnace air conditioner filters are manufactured using a heavy duty, moisture resistant beverage board frame. As with all Nordic Pure furnace air conditioner filters, the material is electrostatically charged to attract unwanted particles. The media used will not promote the growth of bacteria or mold on the air filter and is better at trapping airborne particles than fiberglass filters. Our attention to the smallest of details results in a healthier living space. For fresh, clean air in your home and office, it is important to regularly change your AC filter, especially during home improvements. We recommend changing your HVAC furnace filter every 1-3 months, depending on your unique home or office environment. People with pets or those who suffer from allergies should change their A/C air filters more often. Replacing your air filter regularly not only improves indoor air quality, it helps your HVAC unit perform more efficiently. Important Note: Almost all air condition filters have a different Actual Size (the exact dimensions) than Nominal Size (the name) printed on the air conditioning filter. It is best to measure the exact size of your A/C filter and compare it to our Actual Size to be sure your HVAC replacement filter fits!

From the Manufacturer

Nordic Pure 16x25x4 MERV 12 Pleated AC Furnace Air Filters. Actual Size: 15-1/2-Inch by 24-1/2-Inch by 3-3/4-Inch. Changing your air filter is the first step in insuring your HVAC system runs at its optimal level this season. Generally, you should change your 4-Inch air filters every 3 to 6 months. Particles in indoor air are measured in microns, which are 1/1000 of a millimeter. A human hair is about 100 microns wide. A Nordic Pure air filter captures airborne particles as small as 0.3 microns! Nordic Pure air filters do not kill germs, however, the filter media does not permit the growth of bacteria or mold. As a result, it is not necessary to add any potentially irritating chemicals to the air filter to kill germs. Nordic Pure air filters are made out of an electro statically-charged synthetic material that draws airborne particulates to it like a magnet. Electrostatic filters help trap airborne particles to protect your family from allergy causing pollen, fine dust, smoke particles, airborne plant spores, bacteria, and some viruses.

• Actual Size: 15 1/2 x 24 1/2 x 3 5/8 (15. 5 x 24. 5 x 3. 63)
• Attracts indoor allergens, dust, pollen and other airborne contaminants.
• Hypoallergenic and pleated electrostatic filter material. Antimicrobial
• Nordic Pure recommends changing 4" air filters every 3-6 months

That's not to say we haven't used them just fine for an entire year... if you don't have pets or a lot of construction in the area or dust they'll probably do okay do for a year. I prefer to change them at 6 months, my husband prefers annually.
Question:	What's the difference between Merv 8 and Merv 12? Which one is better and why
Answer:	Good morning. A MERV 12 picks up more particulate than a MERV 8 but can also place more restriction on your system. A MERV 8 is a commonly used household MERV and gets most household particulate. The 12 will collect a finer particulate as well as pet dander, tobacco smoke, auto emissions, firewood smoke, and fine dust. It just depends on your particular needs. However, if your system is older a 12 may place too much air restriction.
Question:	I bought this to replace a honeywell filter. it does not fit snug. should i use it or no? i don't want to damage my system
Answer:	Unfortunately, Amazon doesn't give the full details from Nordic Pure, the manufacturer, which tells you this is not a replacement for Honeywell or Filtrete 16x25x4 and you need to order the 16x25x5 for these replacements. On our website we say: * If you are using a Filtrete filter Click Here to order our 16x25x5 Honeywell/Lennox Replacement air filters. * Measure your current air filter and compare with the Actual Size of this item to make sure you order the correct filter. IMPORTANT Note: Air filters have an actual size that is a fraction of an inch smaller than the standard size (also known as "nominal size"). The size printed on your air filter may NOT be the Actual Size. With the 4" and 5" air filters there is a wider variance between the nominal size and actual size for the different manufacturers. Because of this, the air filter you are replacing could be called a 16x25x4 but really be the same as our 16x25x5. If you are currently using a 16x25x4 Filtrete filter in your Honeywell unit you should order our 16x25x5 Honeywell Replacement that measures 15 3/4 x 24 3/4 x 4 3/8 (15.75x24.75x4.38). This is why we ask you to measure your air filter so you aren't surprised if the air filter doesn't fit!
Question:	Received. concerned filters look generic. no label saying nordic pure. more concerning, nothing saying merv 12. would like reply from manufacturer
Answer:	I suggest you go right to the questions for seller to receive this reply. Any I have always purchased as NORDIC Pure are clearly labeled as such. Be conscious of wording that says " Works like Nordic Pure" for less etc. Fine print can trip you up, but Amazon does not stand for that. Make sure you get what you pay for Nordic Pure is Nordic Pure not an imitation filter even made to the same specs.

User questions & answers

Question:	The description states "filtrete micro allergen defense filter, mpr 1000..." but the picture shows mpr 1550....which one are you buying
Answer:	What size filter are you looking for? This listing has 3 choices - both of the choices that have a description of mpr 1550 are actually called allergen reduction filters & clearly state that they are mpr 1550. I use one of these sizes & always get the 1550. If you need 16X25X4 it's called allergen defense filter mpr 1000. I couldn't find any other statement in the description that listed the mpr - so to me it's unclear. You might want to contact amazon customer support to verify the mpr, but also, the product can be returned if it's not what you were looking for.
Question:	What are the dimensions of the filters? The product image shows 4" deep (20x25x4), but the option is only 1" deep (20x25x
Answer:	The one I purchased was 20x25x4. If you only have option for 1 inch thick, then it sounds like they are out of the 4 inch version.
Question:	Never had an air conditioner or furnace so I have a rather silly question. How can I tell when the filter needs changing - dirty on the backside
Answer:	When it gets dirty on the air intake side. Don't wait for it to get caked with dust as this will cut down on air flow and make your furnace/air conditioner work harder to reach your desired temperature. Filter vendors often recommend changing 4 times per year, but your mileage may vary depending on how much you heat and cool and the cleanliness of the air being moved. I change about 3 times per year, but I could go to twice. Do you change your car filter? How dirty does that get? Be sure the actual size of the filter is correct for your blower. Filtrete nominal sizes and actual sizes differ. I got stuck with 4 filters I can not use. I bought the size 16x25x4, but the end of the filter has the actual size: 16 x 24 1/2 x 4 1/2. the 4 1/2" dimension is too large to fit.
Question:	what is the Merv Rating and how do you convert 1550 MPR to a Merv rating
Answer:	While I am not sure the Filtrete Allergen Reduction Filter is exactly the same as the Filtrete filter shown in the following commercial website, the table shows a MERV of 11 for a MPR of 1500. All the products seem to be 1" rather than 4." I don't know if that affects the MERV. http://www.iallergy.com/filtrete-air-filter-comparison.phpThe bottom of this commercial website page also describes the relationship of MERV, MPR, and FPR ratings for AC and furnace filters:http://www.bestfilters.com/AC-Furnace-Filters_c_605.htmlBased on my reading of the table, a MERV of 11 seems consistent with MPR of 1550.

User questions & answers

Question:	Do you have 16x30x
Answer:	No
Question:	Filter I ordered will not fit my furnace it is 25-16-5 is there a slightly smaller size
Answer:	Probably. Do you have the old one?
Question:	Received wrong size
Answer:	If there is (or) was a filter there, size is usually mentioned there on the side. Length (height)x width (depth)x thickness. If not you may have to physically measure the same and order. I hope this helps. You may also call the company and they can provide the information after finding out the specs or the model number etc.
Question:	Does this filter work with rheem rgpj heater furnace unit
Answer:	These filters are not made specifically for a type/ brand of furnace. You need to get the size off the old filter or furnace specs

User questions & answers

Question:	Can these filters be run along side germicidal lights? I've had problems with this in the past with Trion branded filters
Answer:	This filter specifically says not to be used with UV lights. That will destroy the filter.
Question:	Are these true marv 11 filters or just (crudely) relabled marv 8 filters
Answer:	Yes. These are MERV 11 Filters by Trion Air Bear. Make sure you check the actual size and compatibility with your current filter before ordering. These filters have a foam gasket on the filter.
Question:	Is the price 60.00 for 3 pack
Answer:	According to the description, 3-Pk. Safe to assume it means 3 for $60. A bargain compaired to the $50 service call and a $40 charge for our first filter. While home for Christmas break, my son ordered us this 3 pk and showed us how to change it ourselves. EASY and MUCH less expensive!!
Question:	what is the actual physical dimension (not the nominal onces noted in the description
Answer:	I had the same problem. These filters are too wide to replace the "5" filters that are actually 4"3/8. Your website needs to point this out. Customers, read the small print.When I called to return, I was told I had to pay the shipping. Post office wanted $60 to return my $100 purchase!
