Filtrete 16x25x1 AC Furnace Air Filter, MERV 13, Bacteria & Virus Filter, 2-Pack

Your home should be your sanctuary, starting with the air you breathe. By proactively capturing dust, bacteria, viruses and allergens, these high-performance filters help improve your home's air quality. Filtrete Premium Allergen & Home Pollutants Air Filters help capture unwanted particles from your household air, contributing to a cleaner, fresher home environment.

These filters outperform fiberglass, washable, and non-electrostatic 3-month pleated 1-inch home air filters for your furnace, air conditioner, or HVAC system. They are designed with exclusive Filtrete Brand 3-in-1 technology from 3M to trap unwanted air particles while letting cleaner air flow through.

The filters attract and capture microscopic particles such as smoke, cough and sneeze debris, bacteria and viruses, as well as large particles, including lint, household dust, and pollen. With a MERV 13 rating and an MPR of 2200, these filters are highly efficient at capturing small particles, such as bacteria and particles that carry viruses. In fact, they have a 69% small particle capture rate for particles ranging from 0.3 to 1 micron.

These filters are certified as asthma & allergy friendly, as outlined in the ASCR: 1246-01 report. They are available in a range of sizes, including MPR 1000, MPR 1200, and MPR 1550, in 4-inch, 4-inch slim fit, and 5-inch thick air filters.

For optimal performance of your heating and cooling system or HVAC system, it is recommended to change your home air filter at least every 90 days for 1-inch filters, and at least every 12 months for 4-inch and 5-inch filters. A dirty filter can slow down air flow and make the system work harder to keep you warm or cool, wasting energy. To make this process easier, you can sign up for a filter change reminder program that works for you.
