Description
This air filter is made to a 38-3/8 x 30-1/2 x 1″ nominal size for HVAC systems, air handlers, and return grilles that require an exact custom dimension rather than a standard retail size.
Filter bypass — air slipping past a loose frame instead of through the pleats — is one of the most common reasons a filter underperforms its MERV rating in the real world. A precise fit closes that gap.
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: 38-3/8 x 30-1/2 x 1″

The 38-3/8 x 30-1/2 x 1″ dimension is one of the many non-standard sizes we make on demand, serving both retrofit installations in older homes and light-commercial properties where the return housing dates to an older era of HVAC construction.
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 30-1/2 x 1″ specification — no trimming or taping required at installation
