Possible Causes

Improperly adjusted dampers, Blocked or undersized ducts, Dirty filter restricting airflow, Blower speed not optimized

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: Turn off power before reaching into duct openings.

Steps:

  • Check registers: Open registers in cold rooms fully and partially close registers in overly warm rooms.
  • Inspect dampers: If there are manual dampers on branch ducts, adjust them to balance airflow.
  • Replace filter: Ensure the filter is clean to maximize airflow.

Note: Persistent imbalance may require duct modifications by an HVAC contractor.
