Aprilaire / Space-Gard #501 High Efficiency Filtering Media (2-Pack)
These are the original, OEM expandable "accordian" style, factory recommended replacement filters for the Aprilaire/Space-Gard Model 5000 Air Cleaner. MERV 10 rated.
The filters ship like a collapsed accordian and are expanded into a plastic frame within the air cleaner cabinet. The filter is snapped into the plastic frame and held in place with existing pleat spacers. Assembly instructions are printed on the product carton.
The air cleaner media in the Model 5000 can last from 6 months up to 2 years. If installed on a 5-ton system, in the presence of high concentration of particulate, or if the furnace fan is on continuously, it may be necessary to change the media more frequently. In any application, the life of the media is dependant upon the total volume of air being moved through it as well as the amount of particulate it is filtering.
Filters are expanded into existing plastic frame and held in place with existing pleat spacers
Comments about Aprilaire / Space-Gard #501 High Efficiency Filtering Media, 2-Pack:
It is the filter required for this furnace so even though difficult to install is worth the effort once every 1-2 years. It arrived when promised and customer service was superb. Thanks!

Comments about Aprilaire / Space-Gard #501 High Efficiency Filtering Media, 2-Pack:
Don't be held hostage by your local heating and AC companies for their high prices. This is a great filter and the price here are the best you can find! This filter can last up to one year, it all depends on how much dust you have where you live. It's so nice to have the filters delivered right to your house and not have to look all over town for them. I checked in the "Cons, difficult to install" and that would be maybe the first time for some people. When you take the old one out just reverse the order. The filter was installed incorrectly by the company that did the install and I had it fixed in about 10 minutes. The best benefit is you won't have to dust your house so often!
