Is it ok to make some dust proof remodel?

Basically I want to change my 14’ MacbookPro into an MacbookAir, because I don’t really need the performance and the cooling for my use case. Also my room is dusty and have cats. So I am thinking of something like taping the vent and disable the fan through software. Is it ok to do it?

A BIG NO!

The better direction is just sell your system and get a MacBook Air if that’s what will work for you.

Frankly, I would work on sealing up your home so less dirt and dust get in.

As an example I have an Air to Air exchanger which gives me fresh air which is filtered when it comes in and any kicked up dirt and dust is sucked out. It can also pressurize your room a bit to help remove infiltration of the cold, heat or dust though the small gaps in your walls.

I’m less worried about the dander, hair and fur from you and your pet/s that is shed. Maybe you need to vacuum a bit more or even get a HEPA filtered vacuum so you aren’t just kicking it up to then settle down again, instead really get rid of it.

Besides being healthier for you!
