Why it matters
The Nordic Pure Replacement Filter for Honeywell 10 is a pleated furnace and air conditioner filter rated MERV 10.
MERV 10 sits between the standard and allergy grades, catching more of the 1 to 3 micron range (mold spores, fine dust) than MERV 8.
Deep pleated filters hold several times the media of a 1-inch filter, so they run with less resistance and last longer.
As general guidance, check a 1-inch filter monthly and change it every one to three months; deeper 4- and 5-inch filters usually last six to twelve months.
This listing is the 20x25x5 size; order by the size printed on your old filter's frame.
The Nordic Pure listing names 2 filters per box.
Compared with the Nordic Pure 4-Inch Pleated MERV 12 Air Filter: MERV rating 10 here vs 12.
