The HVAC guy I deal with told me that he'd run a duct of some kind right up to it. So this isn't abnormal. There's no real way to seal any of it up. The louvered cover is really nothing more than a metal plate that pops on the front of the thing. It's open all over the place. I have an energy audit scheduled for 10-10 so I probably need to get this all squared away before then. This might be a stop work condition for any contractors who might be doing work here.
