FAQs

What size hole do I need to drill?

You must drill a 70mm diameter hole to ensure a proper fit.

Can I use this on a metal soffit?

This product is primarily designed for timber and PVC soffit boards.

How many vents do I need?

The number of vents required depends on the total roof area and local building regulations regarding ventilation requirements.

Does it require glue or screws?

No, the vent features a built-in twist-to-lock mechanism that secures it firmly into the drilled hole.

Is the material resistant to sunlight?

The vent is constructed from durable, UV-stabilized materials suitable for outdoor building applications.

Troubleshooting

Vent feels loose after installation

Ensure the soffit material is between 6mm and 12mm thick, as the locking mechanism is calibrated for standard board thicknesses.

Hole saw bit wanders during drilling

Use a pilot drill bit or a center punch to mark the exact center of the 70mm hole before engaging the main hole saw.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Extremely simple installation process
  • Requires only a standard drill for preparation
  • Effective at reducing roof condensation
  • Secure locking fit prevents the vent from falling out
  • Durable build quality

Cons

  • Requires precise 70mm hole diameter for fit
  • Limited to use on soffit boards
  • Brown color may not match all building aesthetics

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To set up your Manthorpe vents, ensure you have a 70mm hole saw. Before drilling, check the underside of the soffit for any obstructions such as internal joists or wires.

Compatibility: This vent is compatible with standard timber and PVC soffit boards. It is intended for external use in roof applications.

Care: Maintenance is minimal. Annually check that the vent louvers remain clear of spider webs, debris, or bird nests to ensure maximum airflow efficiency. If the surface becomes dusty, a simple wipe down with a damp cloth is sufficient.
