Are you certain you’ve got the right size air filter?

The air filter was way too small.

Mom called and asked me if I would change the air filter in his gas furnace. I knew it was about that time of week, and I was expecting his iPhone call, then ever since he and Mom got a divorce, he took over all the service in the house. The only thing he didn’t do was change the air filters, and last week, he called and asked if I would change the air filter when I had a chance. That weekend, I headed to the house. When I got there, the air filters he had were unusual than what he normally used. I told his they didn’t look right. She was saying that the home center didn’t have the correct air filter and told his these were similar, but from a unusual company. There was nothing similar about this air filter and the one that was in the gas furnace. I wanted to know if he was sure he got the right size air filter, and he said he did. She had the sales man double check because he thought they looked too small. I went to put the air filter in the gas furnace, but mom was right. The air filter was way too small. I took the box back to the home center and told them they gave mom the wrong size. I showed them what he needed and the man at the counter said they were similar. I wasn’t going to argue with his and told his I wanted the currency back. I went to the Heating and A/C company and purchased the air filter that belonged in the gas furnace.
