Replace the filter media in your Honeywell TrueFRESH HRV or ERV ventilation system with Permatron MERV 5 replacement filter media.
This replacement filter media is supplied as a
15" x 12" x 1/2" piece, providing enough material to replace the smaller filter sizes used in several Honeywell TrueFRESH VNT series ventilation systems using media pad 50053952-006, 50053952-005 and 50063805-003.
Simply measure your existing filter and cut the new media to the size you need using ordinary household scissors. No special cutting equipment is required.
Important: Supplied as 15" x 12" Media
Please Note: You will receive 15" x 12" x 1/2" pieces of uncut filter media. The media is intentionally supplied in the largest size and can be easily trimmed to fit your specific Honeywell TrueFRESH ventilation system.
The filter is not pre-cut to the smaller dimensions. You will need to measure your existing filter and cut the replacement media to the required size before installation.
Easy Cut-to-Size Replacement
Replacing your Honeywell TrueFRESH filter does not require purchasing an exact pre-cut filter size. The 15" x 12" media can be easily trimmed to match your existing filter.
- Remove your existing filter and use it as a template whenever possible.
- Measure the existing filter to determine the required length and width.
- Mark the replacement media using the existing filter as a guide.
- Cut the media with scissors. A standard pair of household scissors is sufficient.
- Install the replacement media in your Honeywell TrueFRESH ventilation system.
Tip: If your original filter is still intact, use it as a template. This is the easiest way to reproduce the correct filter dimensions.

Can I cut the filter media myself?
Yes. The polyester filter media can be easily cut with a standard pair of household scissors. No special cutting equipment is required.
How do I know what size to cut the media?
The easiest method is to use your existing filter as a template. Measure the existing filter or place it over the new media, mark the required dimensions, and cut along the marked lines.
What Honeywell TrueFRESH models does this fit?
This replacement media can be cut to fit Honeywell TrueFRESH VNT5070, VNT5150, VNT6150, VNT5200, and VNT6200 ventilation systems.
Is the filter already cut to size?

Compare Filtration Levels
MERV ratings provide a standardized way to compare the particle filtration performance of air filters. MERV 5 provides basic filtration suitable for many residential ventilation applications and is designed to capture common airborne particles such as dust and pollen.
Higher MERV ratings provide greater filtration efficiency but may also create greater resistance to airflow. Always use a filtration level appropriate for your specific ventilation equipment.
Understanding MERV Ratings
- MERV 1-4: Basic filtration for larger airborne particles
- MERV 5-8: Improved filtration of common household dust, pollen, and other airborne particles
- MERV 9-12: Higher-efficiency filtration for improved particle capture
- MERV 13+: High-efficiency filtration commonly used where enhanced indoor air quality is desired
Always verify that a higher-efficiency filter is compatible with your ventilation equipment before upgrading filtration.
