An adjustable filter track system for a heating, ventilation, and/or air conditioning (HVAC) system, comprising:
- a filter track having a recess configured to receive a filter;
- and
- a frame having a first coupling feature configured to couple to the filter track in a first configuration and a second coupling feature configured to couple to the filter track in a second configuration, wherein the first coupling feature of the frame comprises a plurality of first openings configured to align with a plurality of second openings of the filter track, wherein the filter track and the frame are configured to hold the filter in place within the recess, and wherein the filter track is adjustable between the first configuration and the second configuration to accommodate different thicknesses of the filter.
An adjustable filter track system for a heating, ventilation, and/or air conditioning (HVAC) system, comprising:
- a filter track including a recess extending along a length of the filter track;
- a frame configured to extend in a direction transverse to the length of the filter track, wherein the frame includes a first coupling feature and a second coupling feature, wherein the first coupling feature is configured to facilitate coupling of the frame and the filter track in a first configuration, the second coupling feature is configured to facilitate coupling of the frame and the filter track in a second configuration, and wherein a first depth of a groove between the frame and the filter track in the first configuration is less than a second depth of the groove between the frame and filter track in the second configuration;
- a filter configured to be disposed within the recess;
- and
- a stop plate configured to couple to the frame and block movement of the filter along the length of the filter track.
