Can you put this over a vent to reduce noise transferring from one room to another?

If your Spkr's are vented, blocking the vent wii reduce the Spkr's bass output and it will sound somewhat muffled or diminished. This foam would be a rather expensive fix to plug a hole. Other option's are poly fill or some kind of insulation or foam laying around the house

I don't believe so. You can hear the blower but it is not obnoxiously loud. In fact, it will probably contribute a low grade white noise effect.

Yes. the line is actually larger than a dryer vent. this product works good for its size, however, it is a bit noisey.

I don't think you can make it louder. The only option would be to go with a borland exhaust but I think it is overkill or disconnect your exhaust all together, but that is illegal.

It's noisy, but the sound itself it's from the air passing through the vents.... I could survive on a smaller room.... the unit could cold the environment quickly.

I would assume any padding will lessen the noise. I have this setup in garage so I can't speak from experience. Maybe someone who has similar setup to your will have a more concrete answer.

The short answer is, maybe. It really depends on the install. I sit 8 feet from the installed location and its noticeable that its on. When it is on the noise volume is quite low. However when I go downstairs (directly underneath it) I don't hear it at all.

Its really not that loud. It makes some noise yes but i doubt they would hear it in the other room. You could also try turning the force feedback down to reduce the noise.

I suppose it depends on how sensitive your hearing is, and how well you can tolerate quiet background noise. I found it quiet enough for it's location, ie, attic vent.

This is mainly a Floor Duct Vent as far as I recall. you may need an actual Wall Vent. Good Luck.

Since you can not be in the same room or rooms it is hard to say. I had it ine closed off room with another door to the adjoining room closed & could not hear it loudly. Please keep in mind it is a heavy duty industrial ozone generator. You can not stay in the same space with it anyway.

I seriously doubt it, the back panel would block most of the warm/cold air coming from your vent. not to mention the temperatures from your a/c can easily be handled by today's smartphones! :)

This is not the correct solution for that type of problem. If you are trying to soundproof one existing wall then there are many other solutions sandwiching drywall or using mountable sound reduction panels. If you are considering making a sort of open box or actual standing partition to help with some small noise reduction, then something like foam insulation boards (google generator hush box) would be much more practical.

Joe, you can do it, but it will reduce the volume of air that it is pulling through. By reducing it may cause problems with the fan in the future.

If this is a system with internal fans throughout the piping the foam may reduce a small amount of noise probably not worth it for your application. We had an enclosure in a studio that had a venting system and we lined the inside of the enclosure with the foam as well and you could barely hear the cooking fans, computers, and other rack gear that may have created a low end hum. I don't know if that answers your question or not hope it helps.

In decibles? Not sure. The fan on high speed is louder than I thought it would be, but still not very loud for how much air is flowing through it. It depends on your placement also - in a small space it will seem louder than in a larger space. The noise doesn't bother me though, and I certainly don't need ear protection to be around it. Mine is in my basement attached to the ceiling joists, and I can't hear it at all in the room above.

As long as the vent covers are magnetic. If you can stick normal magnetic things to it (fridge magnets, etc), then you should be fine. It might just be easier to find some thick paper and use masking tape to stick it over the vents.
