HVAC Filter Replacement

crwdns2915892:0crwdne2915892:0

This guide is for filter replacement of air conditioning. This replacement is needed to allow proper airflow while preventing particles from leaving the vent. I purchased the filter in Home Depot. Make sure to know the dimensions of the vent opening as there are filters with different dimensions. Additionally, there are 5 categories of filters and are rated by how effective they are. I bought a filter with a score of 9 out of 10 so choose one that meets your budget.

    • Buy a Honeywell Air Filter from Home Depot and make sure to buy the filter with the correct dimensions.

    • The dimensions for filters will vary depending on the dimensions of the vent.

    • In this case, my vent was 14x25x1 and thus needed a filter with the same dimensions.
