HVAC Update Underway in West Wing...

Now, let's just say that I wanted to implant some listening devices to keep an eye on our erratic sort of a President, just to make sure he doesn't sell the country down the river to some foreign guy. Where, oh where could I put them so they wouldn't be noticed?

The warm air flows; the cool air flows. It all flows into every room. Air ducts! What a concept, eh?

Yes, an HVAC update is, indeed, in order in the West Wing, I think.

I knew a security guy who would place them in returns, a few feet away from the registers. TheBlackAdder Aug 2017 #8

beyond having someone plant a bug in the West Wing.

Having said that, I'm pretty sure if there aren't listening device detectors already installed in the WH, it probably gets a security sweep every day.

He said it was perfect, because if the returns are run right, they make an excellent acoustical chamber.

Of course, they were done on a temporary bases, as his state is a one-party state.
