    Ok so im in a rental house and I can't cut into the walls and floor. So I need to move where the air comes out of the vent in my room. I don't need an air deflector I already know about those and I need to move where the air comes out by like 3 to 5 feet. It's hidden by my bed and it's under a little overhang my bed creates so I can still put stuff over the vent it just needs to come out near the foot of the bed so I don't mind if it's not going to look stupid the bed will hide it as long as it works that's fine. Last thing is moving the bed won't work I'm tight on space and this was the only way to fit all my stuff in my room. Last last thing is that if I could find an air deflector that went the other way like the sort long way if that makes sense and if it went a couple feet that might work but I can't find anything like that so the air deflectors might work I just find all the wrong ones.

    In a rental you CAN'T legally reroute ANYTHING without written authorization from the OWNER. That authorization WILL NOT happen without authorization for any holes required.

    Note: Answering your own question instead of updating the question is the DUMBEST thing Yahoo Answers ever allowed. It GUARANTEES the updates will NOT be seen by most people answering the question.

    Unfortunately rerouting it means cutting. But u do realize if u get 2 of the deflectors plus cardboard and duct tape u can basically make ur own to whatever u want. Yes I realize that there are better materials but cardboard is cheap and easy to work with
