Abstract: A vent register includes a front plate having a perforated section for allowing airflow through the front plate, and a plurality of sidewalls perpendicularly extending from a side of the front plate and forming a sleeve for insertion into an opening of a ventilation duct. A first bow-spring is attached to a first sidewall of the plurality of sidewalls and a second bow-spring is attached to a second sidewall, the second sidewall being opposite the first sidewall. The first and second bow-springs are each respectively spring-tempered wires, the first bow-spring being attached at both ends to the first sidewall and the second bow-spring being attached at both ends to the second sidewall. Each of the first and second bow-springs forms a U-shape wing respectively extending from the and second sidewalls. The bow-springs include friction increasing means on at least a center portion for securing the register vent in the opening.
