Advanced Air filtrer MPR 1200 Filtration Technology
Experience exceptional particle capture with the Microparticle Performance Rating (MPR) 1200 system that targets particles as small as 0.3 to 1.0 microns—300 times smaller than a human hair. This Filtrete air filter MPR 1200 achieves MERV 11 certification while exceeding industry standards by capturing microscopic allergens, bacteria, and smoke particles that standard filters miss. The proprietary electrostatic media acts like a magnet, attracting and trapping airborne contaminants with 93% efficiency for particles between 3-10 microns.
Comprehensive Allergen Defense Protection
Protect your family from common indoor air pollutants with this allergen defense air filter MPR 1200 designed to capture dust, pollen, pet dander, mold spores, dust mite debris, and smoke particles. The activated carbon layer in select versions provides additional odor reduction, neutralizing cooking smells, pet odors, and household chemicals. Certified asthma & allergy friendly by the Asthma and Allergy Foundation of America, this filter helps reduce allergy symptoms and respiratory irritation for sensitive individuals.
Pleated Design for Maximum Surface Area
Benefit from the engineered pleated construction that increases filtration surface area by 400% compared to flat fiberglass filters. The 1-inch depth fits standard HVAC systems while the reinforced polypropylene material maintains structural integrity even under high airflow conditions. This 16×20×1 air filter dimensions ensure a perfect fit for residential furnaces, air conditioners, and heat pumps without gaps that allow unfiltered air bypass.
Electrostatic Particle Capture Technology
Maximize filtration efficiency with the electrostatically charged fibers that create a powerful static field to capture particles as small as 0.3 microns. Unlike passive filters that rely solely on physical blocking, this MERV 11 air filter actively attracts microscopic particles like bacteria, viruses, and combustion particles that linger in the air longest. The technology captures what matters most to homeowners while extending HVAC system lifespan by preventing dust buildup on coils and fan motors.
90-Day Replacement Schedule for Optimal Performance
Maintain peak filtration performance by replacing your Filtrete air filter MPR 1200 every 90 days (3 months) as recommended by 3M engineers. As the filter captures particles, airflow resistance gradually increases—timely replacement ensures consistent air circulation and energy efficiency. Households with pets, smokers, or allergy sufferers may benefit from more frequent changes every 60 days for maximum air quality improvement.
Easy Installation & Universal Compatibility
Install in seconds with the industry-standard 16×20×1 dimensions that fit most residential HVAC systems without modification. The filter frame includes clear directional arrows indicating proper airflow orientation for foolproof installation. Compatible with all major furnace and air handler brands including Carrier, Trane, Lennox, Goodman, and Rheem.
