Description

Product Overview

The ALORAIR MERV 8 filter is a premium replacement part designed specifically for Sentinel HD55, HD55S, and HDI65S crawlspace dehumidifiers.

Measuring 17.2 × 8.8 × 0.4 inches and weighing only 5.6 oz, the filter fits seamlessly into the existing filter housing without modification.
