We currently have 20x25x5 MERV 13 in our Goodman system. Anyone know if I can use 20x25x4 in this deal in the same system?
I have same system and bought this last year when it was same sale.
The filter fits in fine, but because it's not as flexible, it's hard to pull out for replacing.
I had to break some pieces to get it out. I probably won't use it again.

Check the actual size of both. I had 20x20x5 from a different brand but the actual size is about the same as 3M 20x20x4. I bought this from Costco and it fits perfectly.

Man 4" with that thickness will it exhaust the ac system
4" filters are actually much less restrictive than 1" ones. After retrofitting from a 1" filter boot to 4", I was able to switch from MERV 8 to MERV 10 while reducing the static pressure drop across the filter from 0.36 to 0.08 in w.c.

ETA: I also get a full 12 months out of each filter. My manometer tells me there's barely any more restriction after all that time. 4" filters get me better filtering *and* reduces total filter cost. Win-win. It should be the standard IMO.

Thanks! Time to stock up for the house. My house uses 4" since the filter is centralized in the attic. I actually prefer the thick filters.

I have to rip it to get it out too. BUT, it does give the filter box a tighter seal IMO.

Isn't 1550 filtration supposed to be too hard on furnaces? I was told to use 1100 or 1200 at the most.
Yes. I had to replace my blower motor after a year of these. My HVAC guy said it was these filters because they're overkill for regular household use

My ACs all use 1 inch
How common is 4 inch
Truly just depends on the furnace. For example, I bought a house and the filter housing is for a 4 inch. Had two techs over who were glad I've been changing it out every 3 months. I got a subscribe and save that sends a 2 pack so I should always keep a backup on hand.

Old house only had room for 1 inch furnace filters in the ceilings, but we also had (3) of them in totality. It was a dang pain having to buy 3 filters 4 times a year as they were constantly dirty and changing them consistently. There was also a filter in the attic. I consider it to be a HVAC dream (or nightmare).

Basically, all HVACs ain't the same, so it just truly depends...

The deeper the filter, the less restrictive the airflow. These 4" filters aren't going to 'exhaust' any AC system.

How long do 4" filters last. Says up to a year but I have a hard time believing that.

Depends on your home. 4" filters have much more surface area so we really do get a year out of them. We could probably go longer, but it's easier to just change it out at the start of the cooling season.

Anybody know the MERV rating on these? Can't find the info anywhere, and hoping I don't have to call 3M to find out.
