Furnace vents
I have just a basic question about the vents for my gas furnace.
There is one large vent that leads directly to the furnace main ducting - its located on the floor and is probably about 18" x 30". What is the vent, is it a return vent, a heater vent, or something else? |

Also newer ones have fresh air intake. |
