Time to make a bigger access...

Time to make a bigger access...
Ditto larger access. Your not going to change the AC handler often but sizing the handler on access hole is not a good idea.
okay...thanks guys...may be stepping away from this side job...lol
What size is the return grill?
the same...i need 2 look at the trim on the attic access closer...already know the old unit has 2 b taken apart. it is much larger...wonder why ppl wait till 90 degree weather 2 have a 36 year old unit replaced...lol
Because they aren't inconvenienced until it doesn't work
Good question!!! I think I know where you are going on this one. If the return is bigger then the attic access take it up there that way. I have done this Many times. Also do you have room to cut in a bigger return air grill? If so you can take it up that way if the current return is to small to do so. Also alot easier to fix by adding a bigger return.
