Even with the thermostatic plate adapter a lot of people still need to block the cooler off. The thermostatic plates are never 100% closed. They always allow for some flow to avoid thermostatic shock when it opens fully.

Usually, when "closed," there is still around 10% flow, which in winter is enough to require a physical blocking plate for the cooler itself.
