Why doesn’t this HEPA air filter fit?

My hubby has been having a lot of difficulties with his allergies lately.

I had learn that by simply installing a HEPA air filter into your oil furnace or unit, you could remove a lot of allergens from your air.

I went to the current home center plus asked if they carried HEPA air filters for our unit? As soon as I got the HEPA air filter home, I put it in the unit. I couldn’t guess the HEPA air filter wouldn’t fit. I called the HVAC corporation to see if I needed a specialty sized HEPA air filter for our unit. They asked me for the serial number of our A/C unit? The HVAC tech told me that our component was not made to accept a HEPA air filter. I had to have some customizing done to our A/C component before I could use a HEPA. I had no plan what he was talking about. He explained that if I were to put a HEPA into our A/C unit, I would need to have a greater plus heavier fan. Without a greater fan, I wouldn’t be able to get enough airflow, plus our component could end up being injured beyond repair. This I understood. He told me they made portable air cleaners, which could be used in whatever room our hubby was in. If the portable air cleaner worked, I could consistently have revisions made to the A/C unit, plus then I could use the HEPA, but it was going to be high-priced.
