About a year after installing my Mr Cool mini split AC unit in my shop I decided to build a filter box above the unit to pre-filter all the fine dust you will find in a wood working shop. The area around the mini split is limited so I used two 16x25x1 (MERV8) furnace filters which will provide about 4 times the area of the unit's current air intake. The filters will be rotated regularly to keep the air as unobstructed as possible. This pre-filter should keep the inside of my Mr Cool good as new!
Overall a pretty easy project with just basic tools and no fancy joinery. I used ½ inch cabinet grade ply wood left over from a previous project and a scrap piece of ¾ plywood for the french cleat.
I plan to post and update here after a few months of usage to let everyone know how well it works.
