White-Rodgers FR1000 Media Filter

The White-Rodgers FR1000 Media Filter is a professional-grade filtration solution engineered for heavy-duty residential and light commercial HVAC systems. This high-capacity 16x20x5 air filter is factory-rated for 1200 CFM airflow, ensuring minimal static pressure drop while maintaining peak system performance. Constructed with a robust blend of cotton and synthetic fibers, this pleated media filter provides a MERV 8 efficiency rating, specifically designed to capture atmospheric dust, pollen, and mold spores that typically bypass standard 1-inch filters. As a direct White-Rodgers replacement filter for ACM1000-101 and ACB1000 cabinets, it features a durable casing for a precise slide-in fit. This premium media is a critical component for technicians looking to protect high-efficiency evaporator coils from fouling and to reduce HVAC system maintenance requirements. Its deep-pleat design significantly increases surface area, offering superior dust-holding capacity compared to competitive 5-inch filters. Professionals trust the FR1000-100 to maintain indoor air quality and system equilibrium in high-velocity air handlers.

• Optimized Airflow: Precision-engineered to support up to 1200 CFM with low resistance, protecting blower motors from premature wear.

What is the actual size of the FR1000 filter?
The nominal dimensions are 16x20x5, but the actual physical measurements are 16" x 21" x 5" to ensure an airtight seal within White-Rodgers filter housings.

Is the FR1000 compatible with electronic air cleaners?
Yes, this media is commonly used as a replacement in SST10 series frames or as an upgrade for specific electronic air cleaner cabinets when converted to media-based filtration.

Can I use this in any 16x20x5 cabinet?
While designed for White-Rodgers ACM1000, it may fit other brands; however, technicians should verify the actual 21-inch length to ensure cabinet door clearance.
