Embodiments of the present disclosure include a drive belt tensioner configured to adjust tension in a drive belt of a blower assembly for a heating, ventilation, and/or air conditioning (HVAC) system. The drive belt tensioner includes a mounting bracket configured to couple directly to a blower housing that is configured to house a blower of the blower assembly. The drive belt tensioner further includes an idler pulley configured to contact the drive belt. A position of the idler pulley is adjustable relative to the mounting bracket to enable adjustment of the tension in the drive belt.

Drive belt tensioner systems and methods

A heating, ventilation, and/or air conditioning (HVAC) system includes a panel assembly having a first face and a second face terminating in a corner. The HVAC system also includes an end cap having a first surface and a second surface that are joined at a vertex. The end cap extends over the corner of the panel assembly such that the first surface of the end cap extends along the first face and the second surface of the end cap extends along the second face. The end cap includes a rib extending from the vertex and into a slot formed at the corner between the first face and the second face.

In an embodiment of the present disclosure, a latch assembly for an access panel of a housing includes a latch structure having a first surface, a second surface, and an intermediate step therebetween. The latch assembly also includes a fastener configured to facilitate coupling of the first surface to the access panel, and a locking system configured to engage with a structural support of the housing via the second surface. The locking system is configured to be rotated to secure the second surface to the structural support and rotated to release the second surface from the structural support.
