Did anyone ever find where the HVAC pulls outside air from ?

I don't know but I need to find out. The Ozium didn't completely work. Basically I smell the odor at startup, and when I turn the AC off after it has been running awhile. I keep the temp around 74 so it is always switching between recirc and fresh, thought that would finally solve it, but it is still there in the above circumstances.

Your going to smell it after you shut it off.... you need to keep blowing it out... one treatment of ozium might not be enough...

Great find. Odd that there is no mesh there or anything ... I had a rodent problem well just a lot of birdseed that ended sitting on top of that microfilter and now it almost makes sense after seeing how open and easy it os for them to get in there haha. Needless to say ortho mouse traps have worked wonders

no more pests
