That makes sense, but I'm curious of 2 things. Do you need an exit for the air? Is there a screening material to keep bug from nesting while not in use? Lou yes and yes.

Like he said yes and yes.
Some aircraft have a vent hole on the LE. The tube makes a turn to get rid of the rain etc then dumps into the LE and departs eventually where the wing de-ice hot air goes. Others get the air from the pnumatic system of the aircraft so it is already bug and water free and cools on the ground. Kind of hard to do that on a recip though.
