Description
You have been pricing MERV 13 and putting it off, because the last quote you pulled made it a hard sell. Here it is $15.09 a filter in a 12 case.
What you get for that is a self supported synthetic pleat with no metal grid, so there is nothing to rust into the frame and nothing to catch when a tech pulls one out at an angle. The frame is moisture resistant beverage board, which matters on any rack sitting above a coil that sweats.
At 2 inch you get noticeably more media than a 1 inch carries, which means lower resistance and longer between changes. The work it does is upstream of air quality: it keeps fine dust off the coil, and a loaded coil narrows your split and keeps the compressor running longer than it needs to.
Every case ships the same part number, so what goes in the building in March matches what goes in it in September. We stock this line as a Parker dealer and order against their distribution network.
Ten cases or more drops you to $14.25 a filter. Freight is already in the price, so the number on the page is the number you pay.
When this is the wrong call
MERV 13 moves less air than MERV 8 through the same opening. A 2 inch carries more media than a 1 inch, so it breathes better, but it is still a step up in resistance from the MERV 8 you may be replacing.
If the unit is older or the return is undersized, take a static pressure reading before you switch, not after.
If your rack only accepts 1 inch, this filter does not fit. Check the slot before you order a case.
