Upgrade your indoor air with the AprilAire 16x25x4 Synthetic Fiber Pleated Cabinet Air Filter. Engineered for Aprilaire cabinet air cleaners, this high‑efficiency filter combines durable synthetic fiber media with a sturdy frame to deliver cleaner air, year after year.
Why this 13 MERV pleated filter stands out
At the heart of this filter is a pleated synthetic fiber media that captures a wide range of airborne particles. With a MERV 13 rating, it targets common irritants like dust, lint, mold spores, and bacteria, while also reducing the presence of viruses in everyday environments. Note: it is not designed to filter smoke. The pleated design increases surface area for superior filtration without imposing a heavy burden on your HVAC system, helping maintain stable airflow and quiet operation.
