thank you I am not from California and I am going crazy with the AC. I have 2 story house and I can't sleep at night is too hot and the downstairs is frozen ...

If you only closed a vent 50% does it make a difference or just have higher pressure coming out through the vent, vs the 85% you did in the example. Is 85% the recommend amount to see a noticeable difference? Thx

I'll save you 4:27 seconds. Close the vents to have less flow in a room and open them to have more air flow.

[ashoksahu]

Don't you think the duct is designed to have adequate air flow to each room based on the location of the room and size of the room? If the design is right and the duct is installed correctly then, I believe all the registers should stay open all the time instead of adjusting the register opening /closing.

This video was like watching paint dry. I was so bored I didn’t even get to find out the information I came for. 😭

Sheesh what a waste of a video. I expected a video to go into how the ducts in the house ventilates the air in the home. This is an example of how to move the vents in your car to face you for more cold air to vent to your direction. Video can be summed in one second. Close vents. Lol.

Even if i close all the vents downstairs no change in air distribution in the rooms upstairs.

Straight up thought, Corey Taylor from slipknot, was gonna teach me how to cool my house😂

Home owners can't air balance and air balancing is done at dampers not registers. Changing system airflow at the register can cause damage to the system and drive up utility bills.

I’m no pro but they say that messing with the register is not good because it will force the hvac. I will deff leave register open and mess with the dampers instead .

[curtwilliams]

What if you don't have a thermostat upstairs ?...

Just the one. (down stairs)

[davidhalley]

I'm new to forced air heat/ac and have a new home. I have three zones, two on the main floor and one downstairs. There's a big temperature difference from downstairs to upstairs....roughly 6-8 degrees. The downstairs zone was set to blow 20% into the main floor zone. Is that standard? We all know heat rises so why is there air blowing in a separate zone when you don't need it? I only have access to the registers with dampers.

My vent is all the way open but my room is extremely hot but the rest of the house is cold

[aminakishk]

I think he is standing on something, a stool or a small ladder.

[BenFrankarts]

Look at him. My man can get his dunk on!

[jennyjohnson]

Ok so i have a multi-level house and only one thermostat, the basement is freezing and the upstairs is hot (where the thermostat is located). It’s causing a giant temperature difference throughout the house. What can i do??

[JB-cgjr]

What if you have a 2 story and 1 unti controls 1/2 of the house up and down and the other unit controls the other 1/2 up and down? How do balance in that case?
