When your HVAC system calls for a 32 x 22-1/2 x 1 filter and the standard aisle doesn’t carry it, this Exact Filters unit is cut to your exact 32 x 22-1/2 x 1 spec no shims, no gaps, no bypass air.
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.

- Nominal size: 32 x 22-1/2 x 1
