I had great experience utilizing this type of filter with an HVAC unit I had at another home I owned. At my current location my return air grill only accepted a 12 X 36 X 1 filter which did not satisfy my needs. I researched what would be required to modify my return air to accept this type of filter and found it was definitely doable if I could find the filter to fit. I was lucky to find Filterbuy that makes just about any type or size filter you need. They custom made it for a reasonable price. You cannot but this filter at your big box stores such as Lowe's or Home Depot. I was so pleased to find this company that made them and I would recommend everyone to modify their return airs that only accept one inch filter to be able to accept this design filter.

All air filters have a nominal size and an actual size.
The nominal size is rounded up to the nearest whole or half inch, and printed in a larger font.
The actual size is an exact physical measurement of the filter, printed in a smaller font.
12x36x4
Actual 11.5x35.5x3.75"
If the sizes printed on your current filter match the sizes shown above, this is your filter.
If your previous filter does not have dimensions printed on the frame, use a tape measure and record the length x width x depth. Then, round up to the nearest half inch to find the corresponding nominal size.
