If your rig is new, it's not just the AC
We are now in the process of putting all the mods we had in our old rig in this one. One thing we did in the old rig is use furnace vents that close in the summer and open ones in the winter (we have cats and don't want the hair and cat littler down there any more than we have to and we might as well keep the coldest air in here). Anyway, when I got the winter vents out to put the new ones in, the duct run was full of sawdust and other unidentified stuff waiting to surprise us when we used the furnace for the first time.

Keystone does not charge extra for the sawdust.

Should have used my dealer. He takes care of all those things for you before delivery.

we use a magnetic sheet and cut it to the size of the vent and put them over the vents and no dirt or anything gets in.

We tried those first, but where our vents were and the traffic patterns in the old rig they kept being slid off when people turned on them. Also, with our new rig the rug completely covers them when the slide is in and if we forget one we could have problems.
