Wal-Mart (last time I checked) does not carry the larger size needed by the majority of new Carrier units installed south of 466 since 2009. Online they are about $25-$35 for exact size depending on the grade. Until recently HD did not stock them either. I have asked the manager about 5 times whey they don't and he indicated that he'd look into it. I guess he did


I'll check out Ace as mentioned but last time I checked they didn't carry the proper size ( 19 1/8 x 19 13/16 x 4 5/16) for $15 as stated. But I'll check.
