New Tesla owner. Climate control question.

Hey everyone. This is my first post. My wife is sensitive to A/C and I am not. I like it cranking and it bothers her a bit. Seeing how there are no "vents" to close like other cars is there away to have the fan lower on her side?

 

[hey kupo]

I think the best you can do is split the cabin. If you adjust the temp on driver's side it will pop up a slider. To the right is a split button. Then she can adjust temp on her side higher which, if roughly ambient, may lower the fan.

Or you can customize her side of the cabin air flow, using that cool interface

No there’s only one fan speed

I adjust the fan directions to both on my side.

 

[E90alex]

You can stuff a long sock or strip of foam across the vent to block the air.

I haven’t tried but can you not tap the passenger side vents on the screen to turn them off/on with someone sitting in the seat like you can when the seat is unoccupied?

When you are moving her vents, pinch like you're tying to zoom in and the vents will split in two and you can point them in opposite directions

I just went through something similar with my M3P. The AC was drying my contact lenses out horribly. I found and ordered a vent block that works great: Vent Cover for Tesla Model 3/Y by Ludicrous Tesla on Tindie

This was apparently designed and 3D printed by forum member icefree, and discussed in this thread here on the forum: Blocking or covering the air vent output?

I wrapped mine in carbon fiber vinyl to make it a little more visually appealing. It works very well and almost completely shuts off airflow to the side of the car on which it is installed. My contacts are much happier now.
