    With a long enough bit you can drill through anything!

    They took a hole saw and drilled down behind the control panel right through the 6x12 aluminum duct under the mobile home. The exit hole was a good 8" in diameter.

    The picture was taken by reaching down past the heating elements after I removed the blower.

    Typical is right. Exceptional would be if they had caulked the hole.
    Who woulda guessed there was ductwork under there?

    Nope! It was done by a medium sized shop that is still in business today. Goes to show that your only as good as your worst employees.

    That looks like so many mobile homes around here. I love the factory accordian pipes for a drain line.
