Faulty Filter Racks

I was going to write about duct insulation, but after an air filtration project I just completed, I had to address the common problem of filter racks in both residential and commercial applications. This particular furnace was a downflow unit with the filters on top. The home owner is expected to slide a pair of filters up past the blower and fit them in a "V" configuration with the little rack in the top of the furnace. It is convenient for the manufacturer and installer but not for the homeowner. The problem is the filters never go in correctly and there is an air gap around the frame for dirty air to bypass the filters. I suggest a better approach.
