What Makes This Filter Different?

Unlike standard furnace filters that only trap particles, the PGAPXCAR2020 uses patented Captures & Kills® technology. After capturing harmful particles in its MERV 13 media, an electrical charge actually destroys the DNA of viruses, bacteria, and mold - preventing them from reproducing in your system.

  • ✓ Also compatible with Bryant models using same cabinet
  • ✓ No modifications needed - slides right into existing cabinet

Frequently Asked Questions

What's the difference between PGAPXCAR2020 and AGAPXCAR2020?

They are the exact same filter. Carrier simply updated the part number. We ship the latest version (AGAPXCAR2020) which is 100% compatible.

How often should I replace this filter?

Most homes need replacement every 8-12 months. Homes with pets, high dust, or allergies may need changes every 6-8 months.

Will this fit my Carrier/Bryant system?

This fits PGAPAXX2020 and DGAPAXX2020 cabinet models. Check your current filter frame for the part number or measure: actual size should be 21.0" x 21.9" x 2.6".

What's the difference between genuine and compatible?

Genuine is made by Carrier. Our compatible filter (linked above) meets all OEM specs including MERV 13 rating and germicidal technology, but costs 50% less than from HVAC dealers.
