No, your filters aren't dirty. Not the problem. Your return is acting like a filter that's pretty Epic Nasty.

    If I thought regular standing fans got their screens dirty, I was wrong. This just scares me to a degree

  2. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Mumma & Riley H says:

  3. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Altzan260 says:

    I make a point to clean return grills inside restaurants because of this very scenario but a lot of maintenance and service techs never do. Partly because a lot of commercial techs can’t deal with people or don’t speak or spend any time with management to figure out if the have a concerns related to HVAC. You can save a lot of service calls and wasted trip by making sure returns are clean. Try to clean when customers are not nearby as to not drop dust or give people unjustified reason to complain

    I've always wanted a dust blanket. Now I can have one

  15. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Chuck Ferraris says:

    Sad.

  32. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars mc0818 says:

    Was tasked to change out a TXV at an auto parts shop that another tech condemned (FORESHADOWING). It was a rainy day, I just wanted to get it over with. Checked the unit to confirm the diagnosis, seemed to confirm the issue. Changed out the TXV, weighed in my charge. LOW PRESSURE READING… After racking my brain for about 30 min, ít clicked – sure enough, the return vent in the waiting room looked like yours. Not sure if there's a perfect word to convey my feelings in that moment, but "happy" was not one of them 😅.

  33. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Zw Spiller says:

    I just changed them like 2 weeks ago……🤨

  41. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars madmax2069 says:
