Description
This air filter is made to a 39-1/4 x 26-1/4 x 1″ nominal size for HVAC systems, air handlers, and return grilles that require an exact custom dimension rather than a standard retail size.
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.
MERV 13 is the top efficiency offered in the Exact Filters® line. It captures the broadest range of airborne particles we make, including fine dust, smoke particles, and the submicron fraction that carries many allergens and bioaerosols. Buildings dealing with wildfire smoke, indoor air-quality concerns, or sensitive occupants commonly step up to this rating.
Specifications
- Nominal size: 39-1/4 x 26-1/4 x 1″
- Actual dimensions: 39-1/4 x 26-1/4 x 3/4″

The 39-1/4 x 26-1/4 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
