Build Custom Size HVAC, Air or Furnace Filters

Custom air filters are created to fit unique HVAC systems and filtration capabilities for better air flow control. Air Filters Deliver can create custom filters for specific dimensions and thicknesses when a mass-produced standard air filter is inadequate. Custom AC filters provide better performance when your HVAC unit requires high-efficiency filtration, better allergen control, or has specific compatibility requirements

Consider ordering custom air filters if your HVAC system needs a specific type of filtration, non-standard size air filters, or if it needs to accommodate specific environmental conditions. A custom-made filter can be the best solution if a standard filter won’t fit properly. Whether managing industrial air quality, eliminating allergens, or ensuring energy efficiency, custom air filters can be more compatible with some HVAC systems and provide better performance than many standard choices. 

Depending on filtration needs and compatible HVAC systems, custom air filters can be made from various types of materials. Here are common resources used when constructing them:

Synthetic Fibers: Used to create pleated filters, synthetic materials like polypropylene or polyester effectively capture particles while circulating air. 

Fiberglass: Lightweight and cost-effective fiberglass filters trap larger particles but may not provide high-efficiency filtration.

Activated Carbon: These filters help remove odors and pollutants like smoke, fumes, and volatile organic compounds (VOCs).

Electrostatic Fibers: Attract and trap airborne particles, providing productive filtration.

HEPA-Grade Materials: HEPA-based materials capture 99% of contaminants including bacteria and allergens

Metal Mesh or Aluminum: These durable filters last longer because they are structurally strong.

To determine your custom size AC filter size, measure the length and width (L x W). The smallest measurement goes first if your filter isn’t a square. Then measure the depth of your filter from front to back to determine its thickness. Then put your measurements together (L x W x D).

Your custom air filters should be changed consistently every 1 to 3 months to maintain healthy indoor air conditions and proper HVAC unit performance. When a filter becomes clogged, replace it sooner. In an industrial or commercial environment, filters might need to be replaced more frequently. Pet owners might also need to change their custom air filter more often. 

Custom air filters deliver better filtration than reusable filters without the burden of needing to clean them repeatedly. Reusable filters can degrade over time and lose their ability to be effective. Custom filters provide peak filtration performance until they’re replaced. They can target specific contaminants, providing better filtration of allergens, dust, and other airborne particulates. 

Custom air filters frequently outperform standard size filters, providing better HVAC system efficiency by targeting certain contaminants, improving air circulation, and making HVAC equipment last longer. 

The long-term benefits of better performance and reduced strain on HVAC units justify the additional cost of custom-made AC filters. Standard filters might not provide adequate air purification, which could lead to increased costs for HVAC system maintenance or repair. Business owners and homeowners who appreciate high-efficiency filtration and superior indoor air quality will value custom air filters.  

Visit our Air Filters Delivered website to order your custom air filters. It's a simple, convenient process, and we can accommodate your needs for unique air filter sizes, specific MERV ratings, and material choices. 

The nominal size is the rounded label size printed on your filter (for example, 20×20×1). The actual size is the true measurement of the filter, which is slightly smaller—usually around 19.75×19.75×0.75 for a 1-inch filter. Always use your actual measurements when ordering custom filters.
