Right size and place for the central A/C filter
Hi,
I have two spots where I can place the A/C filter. My intake openening is 20"x30". However, that only leads to 20"x30"x15" box from which the 20"x15" chute that goes to the unit comes off. So I can either use a 20"x30" filter right at the opening or at 20"x15" filter right in front of the chute that goes to the unit. What's the better filter size and location to use? Many thanks in advance! Sam |

Many thanks in advance! The larger the filter area the better. I'd go with the 20x30. |

Many thanks in advance! Sam Use a pleated air filter, they have more surface area. http://www.furnacefiltercare.com/ple...ir-filters.php TDD |
