Description
When your HVAC system calls for a 30 x 8-1/2 x 1″ filter and the standard aisle doesn’t carry it, this Exact Filters® unit is cut to your exact 30 x 8-1/2 x 1″ spec — no shims, no gaps, no bypass air.
Even a quarter-inch of gap around a filter can allow a significant percentage of return air to bypass the media entirely, which is why the exact fit matters as much as the filter’s efficiency rating.
This MERV 13 pleated filter is the highest-efficiency option we produce in the Exact Filters® custom-size line. It’s commonly chosen by allergy-sensitive households, buildings in wildfire-smoke regions, healthcare and education facilities, and anyone wanting the deepest particulate capture we offer.
Specifications
- Nominal size: 30 x 8-1/2 x 1″
- Actual dimensions: 30 x 8-1/2 x 3/4″
- Efficiency rating: MERV 13

Common applications for a 30 x 8-1/2 x 1″ custom filter include retrofit installations, legacy HVAC systems installed before standard sizes were codified, built-in return grilles that were framed to non-standard dimensions, and commercial unit housings that don’t match any current off-the-shelf size.
Features
- Sold as a 12-pack so you have a full year of replacements on hand
- Orientation arrow printed on the frame to ensure correct airflow direction at install
- Pleated construction (or fiberglass, depending on MERV tier) designed for balanced capture and airflow
- Suitable for forced-air furnaces, central AC, heat pumps, and packaged HVAC systems
