Your furnace manual lists the filter's dimensions, not its MERV rating. Higher-MERV filters restrict more air. Manufacturers such as Carrier recommend keeping the clean-filter pressure drop under 0.2 in. w.c. (ideally under 0.1). Lennox warns that an over-restrictive filter can trip the high limit in winter and freeze the coil in summer. If you want MERV 11–13, a 4-in. media cabinet is the usual route. Ask an HVAC tech to check static pressure. Nominal sizes are rounded: a filter labeled 16 x 25 x 1 actually measures about 15.5 x 24.5 x 0.75.

Vent pipe must be either 2" or 3" in diameter, depending upon furnace input, number of elbows, length of run and installation (1 or 2 pipes).
The optional Combustion Air Pipe is dependent on installation/code requirements and must be 2" or 3" diameter PVC.
⁴ Minimum Circuit Ampacity = (1.25 x Circulator Blower Amps) + ID Blower amps.
Wire size should be determined in accordance with National Electrical Codes. Extensive wire runs will require larger wire sizes.
