Pleated Panel Air Filters
The pleats create a large surface area for filtering without reducing airflow. These filters are typically used as replacement filters in HVAC equipment. The cardboard frame is treated to resist humidity, and the galvanized steel grill prevents sagging.
These filters meet UL 900 flame retardance requirements. Actual size is up to 5/8” less than trade size.

Panel Air Filters
These filters are typically used as replacements in HVAC equipment.
All meet UL Classified flame retardance requirements. Actual size is up to 5/8” more or less than trade size.
Prefilters can be used as a standalone filter or a prefilter that guards your main filter. They’re an economical choice for protecting expensive filters that catch fine particles.
Mildew-Resistant Snug-Fit Panel Air Filters
A compound inhibits mildew, mold, and fungi growth on these filters. The filter material extends beyond the frame for a tight fit, creating a seal to prevent air from bypassing the filter around its edges. A tacky surface on the filter retains particles.
These filters meet UL 900 flame retardance requirements. Actual size is 3/4" greater than trade size.

Quick-Disconnect Reusable Metal Panel Filters
Magnetic strips on the back of the frame make these filters easy to install and remove. Because you don’t need to disassemble equipment to remove them, they are often used as prefilters on steel air intake louvers, metal cabinets, and metal grid systems. These filters can be washed and reused. They are made of polypropylene, so an electrostatic charge attracts dust and particles to them.
