WHITE 2000-3000mm2 TRICKLE / NIGHT VENT - UPVC WINDOWS
WHITE 2000-3000mm2 TRICKLE VENT TRICKLE VENTS (OR NIGHT VENTS) HELP REDUCE CONDENSATION IN THE HOME WITHOUT REDUCING SECURITY. THE CONTROLLED VENTILATION ALSO ALLOWS YOU TO MAINTAIN GOOD AIR QUALITY WITHOUT LETTING ALL YOUR HEAT ESCAPE. CONDENSATION IS FORMED FROM DAILY ACTIVITIES SUCH AS COOKING, WASHING AND SIMPLY BREATHING. THE MOIST WARM AIR THEN SPREADS TO COOLER PARTS OF THE HOUSE WHERE IT CONDENSATES ON COOLER SURFACES SUCH AS YOUR WINDOWS. BEFORE THE INTRODUCTION OF DOUBLE GLAZING THERE WAS NATURAL VENTILATION IN HOMES SUCH AS POORLY FITTED WINDOWS, OPEN FIREPLACES, AIRBRICKS ETC. WITH TODAYS MODERN LIFESTYLE BUILDINGS HAVE BEEN EFFECTIVELY SEALED AND PROVIDE IDEAL CONDITIONS FOR CONDENSATION TO OCCUR. ALL NEW BUILD PROPERTIES MUST HAVE TRICKLE VENTS FITTED AS PART OF BUILDING REGULATIONS, AND REPLACEMENT WINDOWS MUST NOT MAKE THE VENTILATION OF A ROOM ANY WORSE. TRICKLE VENTS CAN BE FITTED RETROSPECTIVELY AND SO CAN BE FITTED ON YOUR EXISTING WINDOWS OR DOORS. THEY ARE AN EASY AND COST EFFECTIVE WAY OF REDUCING CONDENSATION IN YOUR HOME AND REQUIRE NO MAINTENANCE. THEY CAN EITHER BE FITTED TO THE OPENING SASH OR THE HEAD OF THE FRAME. THE TRICKLE VENT COMES IN 2 PARTS – THE OUTSIDE PART INCORPORATES A FLY SCREEN, WHILE THE INSIDE PART IS OPERATED BY SIMPLY PUSHING THE LEVER TO OPEN OR CLOSE. WITH THE END CAPS ON THE VENT MEASURES APPROX 300mm X 20mm. FIXING SCREWS ARE INCLUDED. BEFORE FITTING THE VENTS YOU WILL NEED TO CHECK WHETHER YOUR FRAMES HAVE REINFORCING IN THEM. TO CHECK FOR RE-INFORCING IN THE TOP OF THE SASH (THE OPENING PART OF THE WINDOW) YOU WILL NEED TO REMOVE THE GLASS THEN DRILL A 10mm HOLE UP THROUGH THE TOP OF THE SASH. TO CHECK FOR RE-INFORCING IN THE ACTUAL FRAME YOU WILL NEED TO OPEN ONE OF THE SASHES AND DRILL UP INTO THE HEAD OF THE FRAME. IF YOU FIND RE-INFORCING THEN IT IS NOT ADVISABLE TO FIT VENTS. TO FIT 1. ROUTE A SLOT IN THE FRAME WITH THE CORRECT SLOT SIZE (See below) 2. PLACE THE VENT CENTRALLY OVER THE SLOT AND FIX INTO PLACE USING THE SCREWS PROVIDED. 3. PUSH THE END CAPS ON TO COVER THE SCREW HOLES TO GIVE 2000mm2 VENTILATION THE SLOT SIZE NEEDS TO BE 163mm X 12.5mm TO GIVE 3000mm2 VENTILATION THE SLOT SIZE NEEDS TO BE 243mm X 12.5mm.
