When allergies make every breath a struggle, the air inside your home should be your safest space. A custom pleated air filter is designed to do what standard filters can’t—capture the tiny particles that trigger sneezing, coughing, and congestion.
Unlike one-size-fits-all options, Filterbuy’s U.S.-made filters are built to your exact HVAC size, ensuring a tight seal that blocks allergens from slipping through. Our pleated design increases surface area to trap more dust, pollen, and pet dander—without restricting airflow or overworking your system.
With over a decade of experience manufacturing millions of filters, we’ve seen firsthand how the right fit paired with the right efficiency rating (like MERV 11 or 13) transforms indoor air quality. Delivered fast and factory-direct, our filters make it simple to protect your family’s health, improve comfort, and breathe easier—season after season.
"After building millions of custom filters in our U.S. facilities, we’ve learned that the biggest difference for allergy relief isn’t just the filter’s rating—it’s the fit. A precisely sized pleated filter traps more allergens and keeps your HVAC system running efficiently, giving families cleaner air they can actually feel every day."

Supporting Statistics & Insights
90% indoors: Americans spend most of their time inside, where pollutant levels are often higher than outside.

Frequently Asked Questions:
What is a custom pleated air filter?
A custom pleated air filter is made to fit your exact HVAC system size and uses a pleated design to capture more allergens like dust, pollen, and pet dander compared to flat or generic filters.
Why are custom pleated filters better for allergy sufferers?
They seal tightly in your system, preventing allergens from bypassing the filter. The pleated surface traps smaller particles, giving you cleaner, healthier indoor air.
Which MERV rating should I choose for allergies?
For mild allergies, MERV 8 works well. For households with pets or moderate allergies, MERV 11 is ideal. For severe allergies, asthma, or poor outdoor air, MERV 13 provides maximum protection.
How often should I replace my pleated filter?
Most pleated filters should be replaced every 90 days. If you have pets, allergies, or live in a high-pollen area, every 60 days may be better for peak performance.
Does a custom filter affect my HVAC system’s airflow?
No—when sized correctly, pleated filters balance strong allergen capture with proper airflow. A well-fitted filter protects both your family’s health and your HVAC system’s efficiency.
