I have 2 HVAC units that use 21x27x5 filters.  Being a dumbass, I sometimes forget to order them at a consistent rate.  As a result, when one gets a little too "full" I see a slowing in air flow which results in extra condensation (air flow helps evaporation).  And the AC stops, as I get too much condensation in the unit.

Yeah - there is a minor problem of getting the condensation out, but when I have new filters, it works great.

So - filters take 2-3 days to get here.  Any idea where I can get larger AC filters in Austin?  Big boxes do not carry, etc.

Just buy anything what will fit (25x20x1) and stick it in there for a day or two while the correct one arrives.  It won't catch everything but will be better than nothing or leaving the old dirty one in place.

there's a company called "Filter Time".  Dale Earnhardt Jr. is their spokesman.  You "subscribe", and they send you filters every 3 months?  I don't know, I've never used the service, but it makes sense to me. Filter gets delivered, guy that receives filter remembers that it's time to change it.
