Nova Verta Standard Downdraft Filter Set

Catalog-documented 24x128 ceiling panels in a 12 to 13 panel grid, paired with floor exhaust arrestor media and a count confirmation per booth.

Most booth pages on this site start from an unverified record. This one starts from a filter catalog: the Nova Verta standard downdraft appears in the AFT 2020 fitment listings with its ceiling set spelled out, which makes it one of the better-documented European cabins we cover. What the catalog gives is the intake spec. What it leaves to the shop is the panel count variance, the exhaust media sizing, and the change rhythm, and those three items are what the rest of this page covers. If your cabin is the Conquer, Prestige, or Raptor rather than the standard downdraft, use those model pages instead; the media logic is shared but the dimensions are not.

Quick answer

The standard Nova Verta downdraft cabin has a documented ceiling filter spec in the AFT 2020 catalog: 12 to 13 ceiling panels at 24x128, a long-panel diffusion grid characteristic of European downdraft plenums. Pair that intake set with floor-level exhaust arrestor media and you have the booth's full consumable program. The one variable the catalog itself flags is the panel count, 12 versus 13, which differs by cabin configuration, so we confirm your count before shipping a full ceiling set. Exhaust media is quoted from your measured grate or pit openings.

How Standard Downdraft shops choose filters

The ceiling set. Twelve to thirteen panels at 24x128 is a lot of media surface, and that is the point of the design: a large diffusion area keeps face velocity low and the descending air curtain smooth. Long panels like these also fail differently than small square pads. A sag, tear, or gap at one end of a 128-long panel disturbs airflow across a whole lane of the booth, so inspect the full length at every change and seat each panel fully in its frame. Order the set complete; a mixed-age ceiling develops uneven face velocity, and the fresh panels take disproportionate flow while loaded ones go slack.

Which count is yours. The catalog documents both 12 and 13 panel configurations for this cabin. Counting is a two-minute job from the booth floor, and a one-panel error either leaves you short mid-change or pays for media you shelve. Once your count is on file, reorders are automatic.

The exhaust pairing. The AFT listing covers the ceiling; the exhaust plane is quoted per booth. Standard fill is fiberglass arrestor pad cut to the floor openings, with polyester arrestor as the upgrade for waterborne schedules. The exhaust turns over several times per ceiling set, so a sensible standing order bundles one ceiling set with multiple exhaust changes.

Regulatory landscape

OSHA 29 CFR 1910.94(c) requires maintained ventilation through the spray zone, and on this cabin the large ceiling area means intake restriction builds slowly and quietly; by the time airflow feels wrong, the media is well past due. NFPA 33 treats the loaded exhaust media and any overspray accumulation beyond it as combustible loading, which makes the floor change interval a fire-code matter, not just a finish-quality one. Shops spraying HAP-containing refinish coatings on vehicles also carry EPA 6H obligations: filtered exhaust and documented maintenance. A dated invoice trail from a standing filter order doubles as the maintenance log 6H expects.

Who runs the Standard Downdraft

This cabin shows up in three places. Established collision shops that installed a Nova Verta downdraft as their flagship booth and have been feeding it filters for years, sometimes from a distributor who has since dropped the line, which is how they land here. Shops that inherited the booth with a building purchase and know it only as "the Italian downdraft," where the catalog-documented ceiling spec saves a measuring session. And regional MSOs standardizing consumables across mixed-brand booth fleets, where a documented 24x128 set that arrives labeled per booth is worth more than any single price break.

Standard Downdraft filter FAQs

How many ceiling filters does my Nova Verta downdraft take, 12 or 13?

Both configurations are documented in the catalog listing, so count your grid before the first order: stand in the booth and count frames across the plenum. Send the count with your quote request and it goes on your booth record, making every reorder exact.

What size are the ceiling panels?

The catalog-documented spec is 24x128 for the standard downdraft cabin. If your measured panels differ from that, say so in the fitment check; a mismatch usually means the cabin is a different Nova Verta model or generation, and we requote against your measurements rather than the listing.

Does the catalog listing cover my exhaust filters too?

No, the documented spec is the ceiling set. Exhaust media is cut to your floor grate or pit openings, which we quote from your measurements. Fiberglass arrestor is the default; tell us your coating mix if you want a media recommendation.

Can I replace just the worst few ceiling panels?

Avoid it. Partial replacement in a long-panel diffusion ceiling creates uneven face velocity, and the airflow imbalance shows up as dust and texture defects in the finish. Replace the ceiling as a complete set and put the interval on the calendar.

Is this page the right one for a Conquer, Prestige, or Raptor?

No. Those are separate Nova Verta models with their own pages and fitment records; do not assume the 24x128 ceiling spec carries over.
