• Directs and channels airflow between components to support proper heating and exhaust
• Helps prevent hotspots and uneven heating by keeping airflow pathways intact
• Restores normal venting when a cracked or broken plenum causes air leaks
• Reduces unusual air noises or vibrations caused by a damaged plenum
