Regulating the temperature in your home is easy when you know how to adjust airflow through ducts. There are two main ways to do this: the first are the shock absorbers located in the flexible ducts.
These can be used
to control airflow if needed, but this is not the most preferred method. The second are the small levers located in the round bypass ducts.These levers can be adjusted to regulate airflow closer to the source. To adjust the shock absorber lever, you will need to turn it either left or right. If you want to close the shock absorber, you will need to turn the shock absorber lever in the opposite direction of the duct. If you want to open the shock absorber, make sure that it works in line with the flexible duct. You can also adjust the shock absorber of your oven or air conditioner so that it is partially open.
Not all air conditioning systems have shock absorbers. Once you locate the system's shock absorbers, move each lever so that it points in the direction of the duct's movement. The air flow will operate at full capacity when the compensation shock absorber is opened. Walk from room to room, first noting the number of ventilation grilles in each room, and then noting the air flow in each of them. When adjusting airflow through ducts, it's important to remember that too much air can cause a drafty feeling and too little air can cause a stuffy feeling. To ensure that your home is comfortable, make sure that you adjust your shock absorbers and levers accordingly.
If you're unsure of how much air should be flowing through your ducts, consult a professional for advice. Adjusting airflow through ducts is an easy way to keep your home comfortable and energy efficient. By following these simple steps, you can ensure that your home has just the right amount of air flowing through it.
