Well I have a 2017 BH3575el and the supply air duct is on the door side and return air is blocked in half by the bathroom sky light on the off door side. Which is supply and which is return is base on how the plenums are constructed in the ceiling and not on how the A/C units work. So they are correct in that it can not easily be changed on an existing unit. Our front unit has 2 return and 3 supply vents. I have a third register to install in the bathroom as an additional return. I currently have the supply side blocked between the to units. This thread has me thinking I will remove those blocks along with the fact that the front unit does a lot of short cycles now(do the thermostats have a differential setting?). My living room unit has 4 supply and 4 return vents.
I am also experimenting with direction of the vent fins. It seems that having the fins across the flow > fins across ||| might be causing the first half fins encountered to push air over the second half set. So I change them so air flow > sees fins = like this dumping air left and right, not front to back in the trailer.
So going forward I think maybe an another addition bedroom return vent giving it 4 with the bathroom one I already have to install, 2 to 4 additional living room vents and removing the blocks I put in the supply side are in order!
Looking at our living room ceiling adding vents near the fantastic fan and in front of the paddle fan just in front of the coffered ceiling cross piece seems like good locations.
Thanks Chris
Chris,
I ended up replacing all our vent covers with the BigPort vent covers, with the 1/4" flange. These don't fit the hole as the hole is slightly larger than needed, but they cover it.
A little challenging to install with four screws each, and aligning with a hole that's bigger.
But because they don't intrude into the duct and the louvers are not as angled, they seem to dump more air into the room. I tested with a windspeed app on my phone, and did see some improvement.
Drawbacks of these vents are that the foam filters are sold separately. But you can use your old filters, if you cut a hole on the center for the center post design of the new vent.
They don't match or blend well with the OEM vents. So if you have any OCD, you'll have to replace all of them. $$$
The fin section is removable to remove the foam filter, but takes some effort.
