    I’ve been experiencing issues with my HVAC filters bending and creating air gaps, allowing dust into the house. I've already tried switching back to more restrictive filters, but the problem persists. Could a dirty blower be causing increased suction or airflow issues, making my filters bend? Would cleaning the blower help resolve this?

    Get yourself a sharpie. Start writing the date and what you do on each unit. Use shorthand if you need to. It makes it nice to pull off the cover and see what’s been done in the past. Also write a baseline for all your numbers, capacitance, pressures, temperature, etc. if I didn’t put your system in, I’m not going out after hours, on the weekend and especially not on a holiday. Get the jackleg who put it in to come out.

    I never agreed with the name Run Cap Bandit. It doesn't really mean what it's supposed to mean. Even so, our friend in the other Carolina uses it for the ones who mount it in the box with no bracket. That's not you. And your technique is perfectly fine in any professor's book.

    Brother we’ve all been there and done that. I’m wondering about your low loss fittings however I use them all the time I’ve never had any problems is it possible you just didn’t have them screwed on tight enough?. I’ve caught myself being cautious about over tightening them. I DO wonder however if someone did add Freon over the weekend. I’ve had weired stuff happen like that.
