Abstract
The present invention discloses removable air duct sealing systems for obstructing and directing airflow through portions of an air duct system. Such air duct sealing systems may include a support plate having opening extending through the support plate from a first side to a second side. Such systems may also include a flange with an interior surface along the opening extending away from one side. Such systems may also include a sawtooth connector operatively coupled to the interior surface of the flange. An exemplary sawtooth connector may include detents configured to catch a backside of a louver of the air vent grill to hold the removable air duct sealing system in place covering the air vent grill.
