I'm a little bit late to the thread, but in regards to the original question about the slide covering the floor vents, I had this happen to me: If you cover enough vents, the heater will get warm enough to pop the overheat sensor, and do a "hard" shut down. Only completely shutting it off and then back on will get it going again.
Just an FYI.
I hadn't thought of that part - I just remember that my furnace guy who takes care of the house and business furnaces said that it's hard on the blower if you restrict too much heat. In MY case - I only have 4 registers, so the slide (when it's in) would be blocking 50% of the ductwork and I know that's too much restriction.
