AIRBRICK Adjustment

Boost your existing AC or heating system’s airflow with AIRBRICK. Set the temperature points for fan activation when the airflow temperature goes below or above the cooling or heating trigger settings.
With 10 adjustable fan speeds, customize your desired airflow boosting, keeping in mind that faster fan speeds will create more noise.
Monitor your airflow temperature accurately by using our default screen display. Please note that our temperature display mode measures the airflow temperature, which is different from your AC or heater’s thermostat reading.

Current Airflow Display

The Current Airflow screen displays the temperature in the duct measured by the temperature measuring sensor on the back panel. This temperature reading helps determine the baseline for heating and cooling triggers. Additionally, you can switch between Fahrenheit and Celsius by pressing the and buttons. To do so, simply press and hold either button until the screen changes units.

1 Fan Speed Adjustment

The AIRBRICK register booster fan has 10 fan speeds, ranging from 1 to 10.
The default fan speed is 5, and you can increase or decrease the fan speed by pressing the and button on the control panel.
Keep in mind that the higher the fan speed, the louder the noise level and the greater the boost to airflow. It’s important to find the right balance between airflow and noise level that works best for your needs.

Brightness Adjustment

To adjust the brightness of the AIRBRICK display, press the Mode button to navigate to the Display Brightness screen. Here, you can choose from four different brightness levels, with level 3 being the brightest and 0 will turn off the screen. To turn on the screen press any button, it will return the brightness to level 3. Adjust the brightness to your personal preference for optimal viewing or turn the screen off completely.

Heating Trigger Adjustment

The Heating Trigger mode is used to set a temperature threshold for the fans to activate. This is not the desired temperature you want for your room. It’s the temperature that comes out from your register when the boost should start.
When the thermal sensor temperature is equal to or higher than the heating trigger temperature, the fans will turn on. Otherwise, the fans will remain off. To set the heating trigger temperature, press the and buttons.
For proper calibration of the register booster fans, turn on your heater and wait for the thermal sensor temperature to stabilize. Set the heating trigger temperature to this number or a few degrees lower.

FAQ

What is the AIRBRICK register booster fan used for?

The AIRBRICK register booster fan is used by inserting it into the wall or floor register to boost the airflow and let more cooled or heated air in.

Is it possible to disable one of the triggers to avoid any false triggering?

The triggers cannot be disabled, but you can adjust the triggering threshold to increase or decrease the sensitivity of the trigger. For instance, if the AIRBRICK is heat-triggered at 85F degrees on a hot summer day and blows hot air in, instead of waiting for the cooled AC flow, you can increase the heating trigger to 100 degrees to prevent unwanted heat.
