How do I change my furnace air filter and were is it located?
The furnace filter can be located in several places. Most common would be to the right or left of furnace there is the sheet-metal return air drop which attaches to side of furnace this may have what looks like a sliding metal door that you can slide it up and filter goes inside. The arrow on filter points to the furnace. If there a bracket to hold filter in place -Good. If no bracket lean filter at a angle so the top is against furnace and bottom is away diagonal from top. Other Places Filters are Found 1. If furnace is in basement remove bottom panel on furnace and see if its in there. 2. There may be a box *(return air box) that the furnace sits on look for and access panel into box. 3. If furnace is in crawl space and laying down the filter will be typically on the right side of furnace flue connection in the return. Or behind the panel that houses the blower motor which is also to right of flue connection. 4. If the Furnace is the attic the filter or filters can be in the ceiling
