Filtration Upgrade (Media Cabinet) in Princeton, TX
A one-inch filter in a return grille is a compromise: to fit real filter media into that space you have to choke the airflow, so most one-inch filters are either too restrictive or too porous to catch much. A media cabinet solves the geometry — we cut a four- or five-inch cabinet in at the air handler, which holds far more filter surface at lower resistance, so you get better capture and less static pressure at the same time, and you change it once or twice a year instead of monthly. We size it to your system's actual airflow rather than fitting the biggest box that clears the joists. Cost depends on cabinet size and how much sheet-metal transition the existing plenum needs. Serving Princeton (1 ZIP codes, 17k residents) and surrounding neighborhoods with same-week scheduling.
