Full answer

Honeywell FC100A1003 is the common MERV 11 OEM cartridge for Honeywell F100 / F200 (and related) 16×20 media cabinets. Published exact size is 15⅞ × 19⅞ × 4⅜ (15.875 × 19.875 × 4.375). It is the 16×20 sister of FC100A1029 (16×25) and FC100A1037 (20×25) — same ~4⅜ depth family, different face. It is not a drop-in for AprilAire 210/213/216 (actual 20.6 × 26.63 × 4) and not a 1-inch 16x20x1 slot filter. Broader brand tables: 16x20x4 size page.

What this is not (avoid wrong swaps)

Not AprilAire — and not every “16x20x4”

  • Honeywell FC100A1003 — 15⅞ × 19⅞ × 4⅜ for Honeywell F100/F200-class 16×20 cabinets.
  • Honeywell FC200E1003 — MERV 13, same face class. Hub: FC200E1003.
  • Honeywell FC100A1029 — 15⅞ × 24⅞ × 4⅜ for 16×25 cabinets. Hub: FC100A1029.
  • Honeywell FC200E1029 — MERV 13 charged-media, same 16×25 face as FC100A1029. Hub: FC200E1029 FC100A1011.
  • Honeywell FC100A1037 — ~19.88 × 24.88 × 4.38 for 20×25 cabinets. Hub: FC100A1037.
  • Honeywell FC40R / FC313R return-grille media — 3″ top-hat for wall/ceiling grilles, not F100/F200 cabinet media. Hubs: FC40R, FC313R.
  • AprilAire 210 / 213 / 216 — official actual 20.6 × 26.63 × 4. Different face. Compare: AprilAire 210 vs 213, AprilAire 216.
  • Nordic Pure / Filterbuy “16x20x4” — often ~15.5 × 19.5 × 3.63. Shallower than 4⅜. Measure before you order.

Some merchants also file the same ~4.38 Honeywell cartridge under a 16x20x5 label. Match the old cartridge’s printed model or tape-measure depth. Size hubs: 16x20x4 · 16x20x5.

Why MERV 11?

MERV 11 in context

MERV is ASHRAE 52.2, as summarized by EPA. FC100A1003 is labeled MERV 11. Higher MERV captures more of the smaller particle bands and adds resistance. A media MERV 11 is not HEPA. We do not claim health outcomes. Full 8 vs 11 vs 13 guide: MERV. Change interval by thickness: how often.

Where these prices came from

OEM pack prices verified 29 Sep 2026

Public featured prices on Air Quality Honeywell Store product pages tonight. Per-filter math is pack price ÷ count. Shipping will move cart totals. Prefer the verified 2-pack row when comparing multi-packs. Broader Filtrete / BestAir / Nordic Pure tables stay on /sizes/16x20x4/ rather than being copied here stale.

Verified tonight via live product pages: AQHS 1-pack featured $67.50 (product:price amount 67.5); 2-pack featured $115.00; 4-pack featured $200.00; 5-pack featured $245.00. Amazon genuine FC100A1003 buy-box not verified tonight — not invented. Do not scrape Filterbuy charts.

Where to buy

No ranking. Stock and price change. Match the model number on the old filter or the cabinet door. A 16x20x1 is not a substitute.
