When you close this register, does it block all airflow, or just block part of the airflow?

When closed It blocks most of the air-flow. While the "flap" closes pretty tightly, there are still some small gaps.

It blocks all of the airflow, but there is still a little heat that escapes from the register being warm.

MOST of the air flow. It is not perfect, but does a good job. My legs don't get roasted in the restroom!

Mine doesn't. I just let the air escape by slightly pressing the adapter down slightly. Just like most types.

I don't understand why this would strain the fan if the vents give you the option to be closed .. Wouldn't that be worse?

My question would be is this action occurring in the cooling mode or heating mode. In cooling mode this action may harm your compressor with it engaging and disengaging. In heating mode and you are controlling a gas furnace, you may accumulate gas fumes in your heating chamber. You may try to adjust the span setting as to how soon the unit kicks back in after the temperature is satisfied. In a case such as you are describing and you are not an A/C technician, it would be best to call a service man.

I haven't encountered this problem. The problem I have occasionally is, at some time after installation I find air has somehow gotten into the line and causes a terrible rattle and noise. I have been able to get rid of the problem by disconnecting and reinstalling the filters. Sorry this doesn't answer you question. Does it always happen? Maybe there is something floating around that blocks the flow when you open turn it on too fast.

Just my opinion... I am not an airflow expert...I don't think it would have a major impact. Ours makes a 90% before exiting and it doesn't cause any issue. depending on your setup I would be most concerned with distance between the fan and exit point...

Unlikely. It's not sealed to the register particularly tightly (normal operation), and just boosts the inbound flow a bit. It should help with the flow in a particular room, tho.

I ventilate eveything, even liquid on the CPU. Makes it last and not overheat when I push it. I'm working, not playing games.

Chances are it pushes less air than you're default fan, at least it did for me . I was debating between a new card or new fan, i should have chosen a new card because I've had to buy one anyways

Airflow does not seem too restricted. It is a great product, our mastiff/pitt mixed dog was destroying our regular screens, but we have used this for over 18 months with no problems.

same as any a/c i think - didnt really notice it one way or the other - not silent of course, it does mask speech a bit when on high fan, but i think you would expect that with any fan

Hey Edward, without a little more info I can only guess at why your unit is shutting off. One possibility is if their is not enough airflow through the unit and it might be overheating. Is it located where there is enough airflow? I have had no issues with my unit.

I always leave the top damper open 100%. I've found that I don't need to fine tune the dampers when using this. The bottom dampers are obviously closed, with the exception of the damper the fan is using.

continued from previous comment.... if your overflow fitting was ever plugged for some odd reason...one 1/4" drill hole anywhere in the lid would also prevent any sort of air locking.

The fan is blocked, but it has adjustable feet on the bottom to allow it to not be blocked. Also, it is still able to keep things cool regardless if the fan is blocked or not - in my experience so far.

Closed as in no air flow coming out at all, the answer is no. Closed as slide totally together, yes.
