Rheem-Ruud 68-101807-02 Filter

For contractors and facility managers, maintaining airflow integrity is non-negotiable. The Rheem-Ruud 68-101807-02 is a professional-grade plastic permanent filter engineered specifically for high-use residential and commercial air handlers. Measuring 16-1/4" x 21" x 3/8", this washable HVAC filter serves as a high-durability OEM replacement that eliminates the waste associated with disposable fiberglass inserts. The heavy-duty plastic frame and woven media are designed to capture airborne particulates while maintaining a low pressure drop, ensuring your blower motor doesn't work overtime. This reusable air filter is an exact-fit component for specific 17AHSL series units and various Rheem/Ruud air conditioning cabinets where a custom 3/8 inch thickness profile is required. By opting for a permanent furnace filter, technicians can provide clients with a sustainable solution that withstands multiple cleaning cycles without losing its structural rigidity or filtration efficacy.

• Washable and Reusable: Constructed from rigid plastic for easy maintenance and long-term service life.
• Exact OEM Fit: Specifically sized at 16.25 x 21 x 0.375 inches to prevent air bypass in Rheem and Ruud air handlers.
• Enhanced System Efficiency: Maintains steady CADR (Clean Air Delivery Rate) by allowing for frequent rinsing to clear accumulated debris.
• Moisture Resistant: The synthetic plastic design resists mold growth and degradation better than traditional cardboard-framed filters.

• How do I clean this filter? Use low-pressure water to rinse against the direction of airflow and allow it to dry completely before re-installing in the cabinet.
• Is this compatible with standard 1-inch slots? No, this is a specialized 3/8" thin-profile filter designed for specific OEM rails.
• Can I use this in place of a pleated filter? This is intended as a direct replacement where the manufacturer specifies a permanent plastic media to maintain specific static pressure levels.
