I own an Ex-Central Vermont snow flanger.....has a huge air system to operate the flanger-blades....the windows in the "monitor" have air-defrosters......this car hasn't had air in the system for 20 years and when I turn on the defrosters I get a respectable blast of air.....I think this is caused by atmospheric pressure or heat and cold......I leave the system closed most of the time......always good for discussion when the guys drop in for refreshments.
