Each season brings the familiar chore of replacing the dirty filter in your central air conditioning system. This project introduces a revolutionary filterless approach, making seasonal preparation as straightforward as emptying a vacuum cleaner canister. Say goodbye to purchasing trips for new filters and reduce waste by eliminating the need to dispose of old filters.
