Why can't I find the correct size furnace filter at my local home improvement store?
The filter shipped with your Carrier unit is made from higher-quality materials than those of the disposable filters found in retail stores. For that reason, replacement Carrier filters can only be purchased through a Carrier dealer, such as Best Heating & Cooling. However, keep in mind that Carrier filters are reusable, and can be washed by hand in cold water.
