Frequently Bought With This Item

The Genuine AprilAire 401 16x25x6 MERV 10 Healthy Air Filter captures common airborne contaminants, including dust, pollen, and mold spores, helping improve indoor air quality.

Key Benefits:

  • Captures pollen, mold spores, and other airborne particles that can contribute to indoor allergy symptoms.
  • Patented SelfSeal Technology minimizes air bypass around the filter, allowing more air to pass through the filter media for effective particle capture.
  • Uses electrostatically charged media to attract and capture airborne particles as air passes through the filter.

  • Designed to provide approximately 6–12 months of filtration.

How often should you replace the AprilAire 401?

Changing your AprilAire 401 is a very quick and easy process that should be done once every six to twelve months.

What contaminants does the AprilAire 401 reduce?

The AprilAire 401 is a MERV 10 air filter, which means that it reduces the following contaminants:

  • Tobacco Smoke
  • Dust
  • Lint
  • Pollen
  • Dust Mite Debris

Do I need to replace the plastic frame or pleat spacers when changing the AprilAire 401?

The AprilAire 401 replacement media is designed to fit into the existing Model 2400 filter frame. The frame and pleat spacers are reused when installing new filter media, provided they are in good condition.

Does the AprilAire 401 help reduce household dust?

Yes. The AprilAire 401 captures airborne dust particles as air circulates through the HVAC system. This can help reduce the amount of dust circulating throughout the home, although regular household cleaning will still be necessary.
