How to Remove the Filter in a Carrier Air Conditioner
Carrier air conditioners have a filter that is inserted into the bottom of the air handler. The air handler is the internal air conditioner unit and captures the air to be cooled or heated. Before the air enters the air handler, it passes through a filter that removes all large particles from the air. Carrier recommends removing and changing your filter each month to keep the air conditioning system running its best at all times. Does this Spark an idea?
