Anyone know where you can buy 2ft by 6in sheets?

SpanishTony · Aug 20, 2017

is that what the plenum filter is made of?

Dopey · Aug 20, 2017

Basickly its like a plastic filter, most are used for fish tanks, BUT if you can get the right size and cut it to shape, you can make plenum foam air filters that will last and wont collapse and rot

SpanishTony · Aug 20, 2017

if it's used for fish tanks maybe search for activated carbon foam

Dopey · Aug 20, 2017

Most of it is too soft more like a sponge... its like the fish tank stuff but its not

SpanishTony · Aug 20, 2017

I replaced my plenum filter last month, will see how long it lasts

Dopey · Aug 20, 2017

I think they make them from gummy bear poo now

Ebay, activated carbon foam in sheets or packs for aquariums, but they aren't the same thing, they're more material rather than chemical traps.

If you are replacing the plenum filter might be worth buying some replacement screws for the scuttle panel, mine were all rusty

Dopey · Aug 20, 2017

My screws are fine, I dip them while I fix it, and dab copper on the screw before I put them back in
