unlike assfault (woops) it can be recycled if it ever does fail, it will quickly disintegrate in the landfill.

Even the great tenants who are always on time don't change them or if they did it's when you remind them the third time after 3 months...I would give them 12 filters and at the end of the lease there are still 11 new filters and the original one completely disintegrated and become "mush" on the coil above it.So now I always change it every 30-45 days myself, and use it as a way to do a quick inspection of the property.But too many odd size filters for each property or each individual unit is a real pain.
