Quote from CreditGuy :
I bought a very similar one from eBay for exactly the same reason. My filter is 12x36 and I had trouble finding that size and they were $12 or more each. I paid more than this for mine, I bought mine about 3 years ago for about $40.

I clean mine every 3 months. I use a hose to run water through the filter and there are arrows which tell you the direction to run water through it to clean it (mine has them and I'm guessing this one does as well). Just be sure to give it about 6-8 hours to completely dry before putting it back in. I hold mine up and rotate it after washing to get as much water to run out after washing. Also, if you have a AC unit that sits outside, be sure to wash off the cooling fins at least once a year. Doing it yourself takes about an hour or you can pay to have it done. Time/money well spent.
I have a buddy who is an AC tech who says there is no reason to let it dry. You don't want it dripping through dry doesn't matter. The way he explain it is that your AC is made to pull humidity out of the air so a little extra from a damp filter isn't going to hurt it. he's personally been doing this for decades without any adverse affects.

I spray mine off out by the pool before getting in.

ProjectFarm tested a similar reusable filter like this one. The performance is much lower compared to regular air filters.

Buy 2 and wait for a warm day to hose off unless you are way up north where you may need 3.

Based on my HVAC tech, I purchase the cheapest filters at Menards (usually get them for $10 for a 4-filter pack) and I replace them every 2 months. If I have to purchase 3 of these washable filters, then the value proposition disappears in my case.

It doesn't freeze where I live so not an issue I've ran into but yeah shower/tub/sink should work. How do you clean things in the winter?

Quote from DealsByLees :
Yeah that is always a solution. Just not a fan of it losing the long side of strength. If I was cutting the 12" side would be more open to it. I have 16x25 on my other unit which is why I did that but figured this route would be better.
I wouldn't give up the long side per se, but rather take a chunk out near the edge and use the edge still for it's strength (put both pieces back together and tape the frame and some tape the seal the gap.

at least that is how the HVAC guys cut down custom filter sizes

here is another approach l, likely better than what I suggested that preserves frame integrity.

Hi, I am new homeowner and I don't know anything about Hvac filters.
My doubt is currently my filter size is 20x25x4. I see here all option is 20x25. Is it recommended to use 1 in. filter in 4 in. slot. Will there be any issues with that?
