The Airvent 100mm Gravity Grille is an ideal solution for homeowners and commercial contractors looking to terminate ventilation ducts while preventing backdrafts. It delivers reliable, efficient airflow management with a discreet white finish that integrates into almost any exterior wall surface, though users should note that the gravity-operated louvers may be susceptible to rattling in extremely high-wind conditions.

This model is designed as a gravity shutter and typically does not include a mesh fly screen to ensure maximum airflow.
While it is designed primarily for extraction, it can be used for intake, though airflow may be slightly restricted by the weight of the shutters.
Yes, the material can be painted to match your exterior wall color, though it is recommended to use a plastic-adhesion primer first.
You will generally need a drill, screws, appropriate wall plugs, and a sealant (like silicone) to waterproof the perimeter of the grille.
It is not recommended for tumble dryers as lint buildup will quickly clog the shutter mechanism.
Check for debris or dust accumulation around the shutter hinges and clean with a damp cloth.
Verify that the grille is mounted perfectly level. If the rattling persists, it may be due to extreme wind pressure which can sometimes be mitigated by adding a small piece of weather stripping to the shutter seat.
Ensure the 100mm ducting connected to the back of the unit is not crushed, bent, or obstructed by insulation inside the wall cavity.
Installation requires a 100mm hole cut through the exterior wall. Ensure the ducting is securely fastened to the back of the grille using appropriate duct tape or a jubilee clip to prevent air leakage. When mounting, ensure the grille is positioned so that the louvers hang vertically; if the unit is installed at an angle, the gravity shutters will not close properly.
To maintain optimal performance, periodically inspect the grille for dust, lint, or debris buildup that might obstruct the movement of the shutters. Clean the grille with a damp cloth and mild soap during seasonal exterior maintenance to ensure the louvers continue to operate freely.
