Cleaned HVAC box...

So I decided to clean out my heater box to day using thge thread in the sticky. Instead of cutting a big chunk out I used a hole saw 1 3/8. (I had a rubber grommet plug to fit the hole) Using a coat hanger and a vacuum with a peace of 5/8 heater hose taped to the end I got 2 big handfuls of leaves out of it and all the small stuff went in the vacuum.
Tested it after and did notice an air flow increase.
Just wanted to say thanks DTR

I did the same thing last fall with a 2 5/8 grommet off a 2nd gen firewall. Took about 10 minutes to do and made a big diference.

Get a grommet and a hole saw and you'll be done in 10 minutes. It's simple!
