Default is it always better to use a thicker filter in furnace?

Easier to go to Walmart, and look at pleated, accordian fold filters.

He did specify pleated. If you can find a 2" thick filter with a
single layer of media, he is correct, the surface of the media would
be approximately double that of the thinner filter, assuming the same
number of pleats and that both filters have the pleat creases at the
very outside of the filter.

damn sense to me, either.
