Possibly, but they do get dirty anyway, probably from damp air and dust entering the plenum chamber. It is worth changing them as per schedule anyway; you don't want to end up with Legionnaires' disease, or worse.

Is it possible to drill the spy hole from the top without removing the panel?

Something like this would do it....



But as the panel is easy to remove why spend the money ?

Yes possible but I would not advise it, there is always the chance of it splitting or even you catching a loom wire, removing the panel gives you the added advantage of checking if the plenum is full of debris or not also, Arctic

Thanks for the advice. Looks like I should remove the panel. I just thought things were best left undisturbed if possible.
