Full spoken dialog from this video
My husband keeps closing the vents of the rooms we aren't using. HVAC systems are designed to work with everything open and flowing together. We've got more pressure in the system. And each duct is only designed to carry so much. It actually slows down because that pressure has built up against it. Flames are blowing into this thing, heating it up really hot. It's relying on that blower to keep it from just getting hotter and hotter and hotter and hotter. You know, if that blower can't move enough air, it's going to overheat.
