- OK, I dont have to disasemble the furnace, but in this instance in West Warwick, RI I couldn’t find the slot for the air filter. I had to take the blower cover off. I found a filter just sitting in there, doing nothing. May aswell not have it in there at all. Blower was filled with dust, not to mention it effects the air quality for occupants.
