38-3/8″ x 27-1/8″ x 1″ MERV 13 Pleated Furnace Filter – 12-Pack

Description

Exact Filters® produces this 38-3/8 x 27-1/8 x 1″ filter to your measurements, so instead of trimming, taping, or forcing a “close enough” size into place, you drop in a filter that fits your 38-3/8 x 27-1/8 x 1″ slot the first time.

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.

At MERV 13, this filter removes a significantly larger share of fine particulate from your return air than standard mid-efficiency ratings — including smoke, bacteria-sized particles, and the fine dust that tends to resettle faster after cleaning. Because the media is denser, a properly sized HVAC system matters: check your blower’s static-pressure headroom before upgrading.

Customers typically order a 38-3/8 x 27-1/8 x 1″ custom filter because their system is older, was built by a regional manufacturer, was retrofitted, or was framed on-site by an installer who didn’t conform to a standard filter dimension. If that describes your situation, you’re in the right place.

Features

• Replace approximately every 90 days in standard installations; shorter intervals in high-dust, smoky, or heavy-use environments
• Orientation arrow printed on the frame to ensure correct airflow direction at install
• Suitable for forced-air furnaces, central AC, heat pumps, and packaged HVAC systems
• Made to your exact 38-3/8 x 27-1/8 x 1″ specification — no trimming or taping required at installation
