I looked up at the vent in the ceiling and noticed how much dust had accumulated.
So I took it down and tried to brush off the dust.
No go.
Something waxy coated the whole thing.
Nicotine!
No shock, this house has had smokers in it since it was built in 1969.
Some Greased Lightning cleaner and a spritz from the hose and it's shockingly clean and silver now.
So I gave the other four vents the same treatment.
Dunno if that helped with the air flow, but they sure look better.
I am often astonished at how things can get dirty slowly enough to not be noticed as getting dirty until they're caked with crud. The blades on the ceiling fans are another place this happens.
