Aerostar Filter

This filter has an actual size of 16 1/2" x 21 1/2" x 3/4". Always measure your current filter or check your HVAC unit's manual to confirm these dimensions match your specific housing, as nominal sizes can sometimes vary from actual measurements.

These ratings indicate the filter's efficiency at capturing airborne particles. With an MPR 600 and FPR 5, this filter is designed for standard residential use, effectively trapping common household particles like lint, dust, and pollen ranging from 3 to 10 microns.

We recommend replacing this filter every 60 to 90 days. However, if you have pets, suffer from allergies, or live in a particularly dusty environment, you may want to check it closer to the 60-day mark to ensure optimal airflow.

Yes, Aerostar offers this filter in various MERV ratings to suit different air quality needs. If you are looking for odor reduction, you can explore their carbon-enhanced versions, which are specifically designed to neutralize household smells.

No, this is a disposable, pleated filter designed for single use. It is intended to be replaced rather than cleaned, as washing pleated filters can damage the media and reduce its ability to capture particles effectively.
