❓ FAQs About 20x20x1 Air Filters

What does 20x20x1 mean in air filters?

It refers to the filter’s dimensions in inches — length x width x depth. Always check the actual size listed on your old filter frame before buying.

Can I use a higher MERV rating than my current filter?

Yes, but check your HVAC manual. Higher MERV filters trap more particles but may restrict airflow in some older systems.

How do I know when to change my filter?

If you notice more dust around your home, increased allergies, or higher energy bills, it’s time to check and replace the filter.

Is this filter washable or reusable?

No — the 20x20x1 air filter is disposable. Replacing it on schedule ensures top performance and cleaner indoor air.
