* Each vent begins with wooden
frame (except our foundation
vents & crawl space vents). The
louvers and trim are then attached using galvanized staples.
* Our louvers are made from aluminum
coil stock which has a baked enamel maintenance-free finish.
* All our vents are fully functional. Fiberglass tight woven screen is
attached to the back. We can make them non-functional (decorative) if needed.
* Our vents are designed for use as a
surface mount installation. They are extremely easy to install. No
special framing is necessary. Simply cut a hole in the sheathing and
install the vent using staples, nails or screws. The rough opening
should
be 2" smaller then the vent size to maximize ventilation.
* Each vent comes with a standard nailing flange,
an outside nailing flange
or a J-channel.
The vent is installed first and the exterior finish is installed
over the standard
nailing flange or the J-channel.
* Use the standard
nailing flange model for ease of installation with stucco,
brick, rock, stone or fiber cement siding (Hardie
Plank). Use J-channel
model with vinyl siding, aluminum siding or steel
siding. The outside
nailing flange
(sometimes called a "cut in flange") is used when the exterior finish
is already in place and a vent is being added or replaced.
Occasionally a vent is needed without a nailing flange or a J-channel
(such as a retrofit into an existing brick or stone opening). Select
"none" for
the mounting trim option in these applications.
