Cycle Air's revolutionary furnace filters are available in 25 sizes. Normally, the nominal size of an HVAC filter is slightly larger than the actual dimensions. For example, a 16x25x1" filter is actually slightly smaller (about 1/4" to 1/2") as with the case with all filter manufacturers. Filter racks (the slot where your filter is installed) typically have a 1" buffer perimeter to account for slight variations in size. It's always best to measure your specific filter needs, and don't hesitate to reach out if you have questions. info@cycleairfilters.com
