    Hi Andrii Kurshyn,

    Thanks for posting.

    The rubber band solution may not be a long-term solution to this due to the heat coming out of the ducts.

    Please contact our support team and we can assist you further.

    We can possibly adjust the Close Tightness setting on the Vent and if that doesn't work may have other ideas for you.

    Regards,

    The Flair Team

    I fixed this with a rubber band on the back of the vanes. Its only one vent that does this for me.

    It's more than a little noise. I was able to get one of them to stop making noise by turning it around... But I suspect that this is a regular problem. Does Flair have any suggestions?

    Hi Flair folks, I am also experiencing air noise when vents are closed. My vents are for A/C only, not heat. Support had attempted to adjust the closing pressure but I didn't hear any difference.I want to add a few more Flair vents on my lower floor to force more cool air to the second floor, but the noise is excessive when closed. Any suggestions? Thanks!

    Can I add links here? Here is the vent running open, and at around 8 seconds you can hear the vent close, followed by lots of air noise. Is this considered "normal"?

    Andri, thanks for the suggestion. Are you saying to put a weather seal around the perimeter of the vent? In my case, the air noise is coming from the fins of the vent.

    This Flair solution is great in theory, but in my experience the excessive air noise makes it difficult to live with.

    Yes, https://ibb.co/4ZWXzS2

    Also did you try rotated vent? Rotation may help too.

    Andrii, thanks for the suggestions. I'm wondering if the rubber band trick might work. Can anyone explain how the rubber bands would be installed? Does this solve the "whooshing" air noise, or is it more for the whistling noise problem?
