Who is the house A/C expert here?
So, I haven't lived in my place very long but I am familiar with changing out the filter in the wall next to the condenser. Well, there are two grates in the wall that suck in air. I removed them and found:
Number one: there is no filter.
Number two: it's just a hole in the wall that can't hold any particular sized filter.
My girl and I rent the place, is the landlord required to fix this problem?
Part of the lease agreement is to change the filter every so often, is there another filter somewhere I don't know about?
What do I do about the hole in the wall, try to fit in an air filter by cutting it up to fit?
Thanks

Usually, systems like that have the filter at the end of the intakes, up just before the furnace/air exchanger (ie, up in the attic). If there's a cover that runs the whole length of the duct just before it runs into the big unit that doesn't look like it requires screws and duct tape to remove, that's probably your culprit.

Check where the ductwork enters the furnace.Usually there is a slot that the filter will slid into.Can you take acouple pics?I worked in the hvac trade for 12 years and can help you but need some pics to see what ya have.Also if anyone else needs any help I usually can figure anything out in the furnace/ac unit.
