Pleated Air Filter — 20x25x2 MERV 10 | AFP2000-20252
About this product
Pleated Air Filter — 20x25x2 MERV 10 — manufacturer part number AFP2000-20252.
What this part does
The air filter protects your blower motor and heat exchanger from dust while keeping airflow clean. A clogged filter is the single most common cause of HVAC failure we see: it starves the system of air, which overheats the furnace and freezes the AC coil.
Replace this part if
- It has been more than 90 days since the last change
- Filter looks grey, matted, or you cannot see light through it
- Weak airflow from the vents
- Furnace shutting down on the high limit switch
- AC coil freezing over
- Dust settling faster than usual

Yes. This is a easy repair that takes about 2 minutes with none. Always shut the power off at the breaker first.

What customers are saying
Saved $2,400 vs local contractor
Got quoted $9,200 from a local HVAC contractor for a furnace replacement. Found Furnace Direct and got the exact same Goodman unit for under $5k delivered. My installer couldn't believe the price and installed it in one day. Runs perfectly.
Fast shipping, exactly as described
Ordered on a Tuesday, pallet arrived Friday. Unit was packed well, no damage, all factory sealed. Andrew answered my sizing question over the phone and got me the right model. Couldn't be happier with the purchase.
Installer said same one he'd buy at supply house
My HVAC guy said he pays basically the same price at his wholesale supply house. The markup contractors add is insane. Furnace Direct cut the middleman out entirely. Will recommend to everyone I know.
Heating my 2,200 sq ft home perfectly
Installed my 96% AFUE furnace a couple months ago. Heats my 2,200 sq ft home perfectly, and my gas bill dropped noticeably compared to the old unit. Great product, great price, great experience from start to finish.
Saved enough to pay for the install
Math was simple: 3 contractor quotes all over $8k. Furnace Direct plus local installer was under $5,500 total. Saved enough to basically pay for the install myself. Quality is identical to what contractors charge a fortune for.
No-pressure, honest pricing
Called a few HVAC companies first — every single one wanted to schedule an "in-home consultation" before giving me a price. Furnace Direct just showed me the price. Bought online, shipped next day, done. This is how it should work.
