Measure the louvered door in front of A-Coil, then call toll free to

1-877-263-7860 Mon thru Fri and order a hog's hair fibered filter with

Visa or MasterCard.


Clean every 30 days with liquid dish soap, rinse well and air dry.


Replace after 9 mos to a year. Buying two reduces downtime for unit and gives 30 days to clean before next change out.



Thanks,

I measured it. The measurements are 27" H x 19.75" W. Once filter is installed how do I get it to stay in place? Also, do I need to remove the mesh filters that are laying on the A coil?

Hi,

Most times, they will stay when pressed in under the lip edges. The filter is thick and stiff enough to hold.


I use a pair of scissor handles to rub/presws in around the edges.


Small square grids face a-coil.


IF it won't (rare), there is a clip/rack thing you can buy to hold it or just drill 4 small holes at each corner and use small wire in X shape to hold in.


Yes, remove the metal mesh filters on a-coil.

Clean a-coil and blower assembly once per year and vacuum around a-coil cavity and furnace cabinet 2-3 times per year.

Top blue toolbar at website, click hvac, then click articles and read cleaning your a/c and cleaning your furnace blower.


Thanks,
Robert
