    Filters at AC return vs Air Handler

    We just installed our Ac 2 weeks ago in our woodshop and we were also worried about getting dusts in the ducts. We had the installers add 2 12" x 12" filters and a 12" x 30" filter on the return air ducts as well as a 4" x 20" x 20" filter at the air handler.

    Need Garage Door Track Options for 17 foot ceiling

    I also have 13.5' walls and did the high lift. You might want to consider not adding the door handles. I had to remove mine after the conversion as the door goes straight up and hugs the wall.
