Carrier FILXXCAR0016 16″x25″x4″ Furnace Filter MERV 8
This filter style replaces the original cardboard framed filters. With its smaller packaging, you can buy in bulk and store your filters until you need them.
The minimum efficiency reporting value (MERV) is the industry standard for measuring efficiency. The FILXXCAR0016 filter has a MERV of 8, which means it has up to 70% efficiency with particles of 3-10 microns.
For homes that need clean air, use this Bryant MERV-8 16x25x4 filter to help remove may airborne pollutants including:
- Cooking smoke
- Tobacco smoke
- Atmospheric dust
- Insecticide dust
- Coal dust
- Household dust
- Mold
- Pollen
- Mites
- Grease
- Fungi
The fibers on this filter have a rough texture and are pleated five inches deep, which creates more surface area — and a better grip — for the particles. Within these pleats are rust-resistant wires to hold the filter firmly in place, helping trap even more particles. The filter will work efficiently to reduce the number of particles for better air quality throughout your home.
The Underwriters Laboratories (UL) lists this filter as Class 2. This filter’s Minimum Efficiency Reporting Value (MERV) is specified by ASHRAE Standard 52.2. It is based on lab tests to determine the filter’s ability to trap particles. MERVs for residential filters will typically be in the range of MERV 1-13. The higher the value, the more efficient the filter. MERV 8 filters have a minimum of 70% particle collection efficiency in the 3–10 micron particle size range. MERV 11 filters have a minimum of 85% particle collection efficiency in the 3-10 micron particle size range and 65% – 80% particle collection efficiency in the 1-3 micron particle size range. (Human hair is approximately 50-100 microns in diameter.) All three sizes of filters are offered in MERV 8 and MERV 11.
The Carrier air filter 16x25x4 fits in these Carrier-Bryant MPKA and FILCAB air cleaner models:
- FILBBCAR0016
- FILBBFT0016
- FILCCCAR0016
- FILCCFTC0016
- KEAFL0201014
Particle-free air has never been easier. Simply slide the filter directly into the box, no assembly required, and replace six to 12 months later for the best results. The exact size of the filter is 15 3/4 by 24 3/4 by 4 5/16.
