Re: [DIY] Diagnose a COLD Room

UGH..sorry...I know how to spell assume...ugh

mine are all wall mounted...however anemometer would

still work to measure flow..

I wonder if a toy electric (dc) fan and voltmeter would work

as spinning the blade may generate a voltage proportional to

flow????

I had difficulty following your explanation, then I realized you must be talking about wall mounted registers. Most of my registers are in the ceiling and your test would not apply. Is that correct?
