Abstract

An air filter unit to be installed in the wall of an air conveying conduit for filtering air as it passes between the conduit and a room includes a frame to mount a flow-through filter over an appropriate aperture in the conduit wall, a gasket between the filter and frame, a gasket between the frame and interior surface of the conduit wall, a frame collar disposed around the periphery of the frame, a clamp which causes the frame and collar to coact in a vice-like manner forcing the frame against the interior wall surface of the duct compressing the gasket therebetween, and a clamp for holding the filter in the frame. The filter unit may further include a pivotally mounted extractor plate disposed inside the conduit to selectively direct a predetermined amount of air through the filter.
