The filter for the a/c will be in the floor of the trailer. follow the
ducts. One is supply it gets cut into the supply duct of the furnace
the other goes to a pan in the floor with a grate over it about 12x20.
Or you have a split system which does use the furnace fan and has a
coil under the furnace....that is ussually the newer version around
here. Is it a little cube a/c or a larger rectangle shape? Dust won't
hurt the electrical but laying on the ground may.
