Have just made an offer on a 70s property which had had ducted hot air heating. This has been replaced at some time with a gas boiler and conventional radiators. The original vents for the hot air have been left in place but now seem to serve no useful purpose. Can they be blocked off? -any suggestions of the best way to do this? It occurred to me to remove the metal grilles, fix a piece of plasterboard in the holes and skim over to give a smooth finish; is this a reasonable idea?
