Abstract
A filter element for a heating, ventilation, and/or air conditioning (HVAC) system includes a filter media and a support element. The support element includes a first interface member, a second interface member, and a connecting member. The first interface member and the second interface member define opposing lateral ends of the support element and extend parallel to one another. The first interface member and the second interface member are engageable with complementary receiving structures of a rail to support the support element on the rail. The connecting member is coupled to the filter media and extends from the first interface member to the second interface member. The connecting member includes a concave portion extending from the first interface member and a convex portion extending from the second interface member.
