I decided to do something to make my house smell nice.
Medium size house, 15 individual "rooms". Including, bedrooms, big closets, hallways, bathrooms etc.
I started using different stuff in individual rooms but after a while it gets really boring to go through every one and see which one ended, which one needs batteries etc etc.
So I decided to do something for the whole house.
My idea is to cut a vertical "flap" in the (vertical) return duct of the HVAC (forced air). Three cuts (top and sides) with the uncut part acting as some sort of hinge on the bottom.
Bend the flap to be horizontal. This will become the bottom of a box.
Build three more vertical walls around this bottom.
Put some sort of filter on top.
Basically a box "stuck" to the side of the duct.
In that box I could put some container with volatile oils that I can change once in a while.
What can go wrong?
Anyone did something like this?
Any advice/suggestions?

15 rooms is not medium sized you rich fuck
also i cant read what you said about your hvac it doesnt make any sense
also it doesnt make any sense trying to make 15 rooms smell nice by just pumping smell, you might as well just get those timer smell things you plug into the mains that will occasionally spray from a little bottle
your entire strategy is wrong

Also why don't you just put it behind the filter in the air return?

Get the ducts cleaned. Spray smell good stuff intonthe returns or sit them in the return

I thought about that but the return is not that easily accessible

ducts are clean, the system has a huge filter (20x25x10)
basically I'm trying to build a second return that will be easier to access (that will also draw air from the bottom of the house instead of just the top)
