heat register

Warm air outlet

A heat register is a vent cover with adjustable louvers that controls airflow from a heating system into a room.

The register sits over a duct opening in a floor, wall, or ceiling, allowing warm air to enter while letting you direct or restrict the flow: Close the heat register in the guest room—nobody's using it.
