The front panel has entrance openings (38) therethrough and a series of first bypass holes (42) therethrough. Similarly, the rear panel has a series of exit openings (46) therethrough and a series of fourth bypass holes (50) therethrough. The air deflector assembly has a repeating series of convoluted first baffle walls (56) and a repeating series of convoluted second baffle walls (58). The first baffle walls include second bypass holes (60) therethrough. The second baffle walls includes third bypass holes (62) therethrough.
