Gas Furnace Air Filter

QUESTION:

I gave up trying to find an aftermarket. Subaru factory units have a special hermetic filtering action so it is not just a paper like your house filter. I ended up buying a micronic house filter and cutting one to fit and seems to work fine. I doubt that a house filter will not trap pollen though like the factory filter.

ANSWER:

I just touched the filter and it looked just like a non-woven type. There is no way in my thinking that there is more than $1 worth of stuff in it. No stickiness like the one in my '98. Good idea though to just replace with home made if too dirty to reuse. Reminds me of time with '98 where hardware store could not find blanks for extra keys and dealer charged me about $17 for two keys.
