UPGRADING FACTORY FILTERS FOR SUPERIOR AIR QUALITY
These were Factory filters in a new commercial air conditioner, as seen in the first photo. They fit well but didn’t filter all that well due to a low Merv rating. The 2nd photo shows the pleated filters with Marv11 rating for an upgrade. The third photo shows the new Merv 11 filters installed but with a gap between them.. We solved this problem in the last photo. We used a piece of wood as a spacer and taped the gap so that it is sealed around and between the filters.
Short on Space for HVAC Equipment? We Have the Answer!
Trane makes a very compact Air Handler now. It is shorter than the ones often installed over a water heater. York first came up with this design and I like the Trane Air Handler better because it is more servicable.
May We Suggest adding a leaf guard to your outdoor unit if you have lots of trees?
ANOTHER HAPPY CUSTOMER WITH A NEW TRANE!
HELP! MY HVAC DUCT IN THE ATTIC IS LEAKING! In this case critters had chewed a hole in the outer liner of a duct; fortunately it did not penetrate into the inner layer. We were able to patch it since the inner liner was intact. Usually with a hole in the dark we need to replace some of it. The photo on the right shows the duct before repair. Left photo shows the restored duct.
