View Detailed InstructionsDirect fit for the Trane BAYFTFR17M air handler filter slot. Actual size 17.2" x 26.2" x 5", built to the OEM dimensional spec without adjustment. The BAYFTFR17M is the filter cabinet on a range of Trane and American Standard residential variable-speed and two-stage systems, and the OEM-branded refill is one of the more expensive consumables in the Trane parts catalog. This Aerostar replacement matches the spec at a substantially lower price point. Three MERV grades cover the residential range. MERV 8 for standard household filtration. MERV 11 for pet households or mild allergy concerns. MERV 13 for fine particulate capture including smoke, bacteria, and virus carriers - recommended if anyone in the home has asthma or chronic respiratory issues. The 5-inch depth means service life runs 6 to 12 months in typical residential use, much longer than a 1-inch filter can manage at any MERV grade. Pleated synthetic electrostatic media handles the work, manufactured by Con-Air Industries in Orlando, Florida. The frame is reinforced for the higher airflow rates these whole-house systems pull. If your Trane has a variable-speed blower, that blower is rated for substantial static pressure - any MERV grade in this depth performs well across the system's range.
This whole house air filter is designed for residential use. By providing cleaner air, this filter reduces the risk of allergens in the home. It is effective at capturing particles like dust, pollen and mold spores from the air passing through the filter. It is also designed to be effective at attracting and capturing microscopic particles that can carry bacteria and viruses. This filter lasts for up to 12 months before needing replacement.

MERV ratings let you know the efficiency and level of filtration that an air filter can handle under normal circumstances. The higher the MERV rating, the finer the particles are that are filtered our of the air in your home. Many air filter retailers use MERV or a similar rating to rate their air filters.
MERV Rating is the primary rating system used in the industry, both domestically and internationally. Established by the American Society of Heating, Refrigerating, and Air Conditioning Engineers, MERV rates a filter’s ability to capture and hold particles and pollutants.
MPR Rating is a rating system developed by 3M. It rates the manufacturer’s Filtrete product line and their ability to capture airborne particles smaller than 1 micron.
FPR Rating is a rating system developed by The Home Depot for brands sold through their stores, including Honeywell. It utilizes a color code and number scale (4 to 10) that closely resembles the MERV rating.
Overall rating: 5.0 / 5 from 1 reviews.
