as long as there's a filter in the unit . . .

Yeah, we've gotten so fed up with odd-ball factory filter rack sizes and customers' inability to change them that we just sell a hi-efficiency set-up whenever we can.

I thought so.. Some of those do have weird filter sizes. All he had to do was get the right one. Real hard.

Or bigger and cut it down to size as a temporary fix. In one case there was no other way to do it as the filter rack wouldn't take any known combination of filters, so typically they'd just slide in 3 25's and trim a little bit of the end of one for each row. Also seen creative trimming or bending done in cases where customer's out in the sticks, went to 3 jobbers in the area and none had the right size filter.

Wish every manufacturer would list recommended filter size on nameplate. I know Trane does on some. This would help a lot.

That's where it's good to have your own documentation that lists the equipment and filter/belt requirements on each site you visit.
