Designed specifically for the Manthorpe Telescopic Underfloor Ventilator range, it provides an additional 150mm of vertical extension, making it ideal for deep underfloor voids or projects involving higher brick courses. While the product is exceptionally easy to install, users should ensure their current ventilation layout is compatible with the unit's dimensions to maintain optimal airflow performance.

FAQs

How much extension does this sleeve provide?

The sleeve provides an additional 150mm of vertical extension, equivalent to two standard brick courses.

Is this compatible with other brands of ventilators?

No, the Manthorpe Extension Sleeve is specifically designed to work only with the Manthorpe range of Telescopic Underfloor Ventilators.

Does this sleeve restrict airflow?

No, it is engineered to maintain an unobstructed airflow path of 6,600mm².

Can I use multiple sleeves together?

The product is designed to extend two brick courses; consult your site architect or building inspector before stacking multiple units to ensure structural and ventilation requirements are met.

What is the material and color?

The sleeve is finished in black and manufactured from high-quality, durable plastic suitable for foundation environments.

Troubleshooting

Sleeve feels loose after installation

Ensure the push-fit connection is fully seated and the components are aligned straight without debris between the joints.

Difficulty inserting the sleeve

Check that the existing ventilator is clear of mortar debris and that the internal alignment guides are not damaged.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Simple push-fit installation saves significant on-site time
  • Maintains high airflow efficiency (6,600mm²)
  • Durable black finish blends well with standard brickwork aesthetics
  • Reliable extension for deep foundation voids

Cons

  • Compatible only with the Manthorpe telescopic range
  • Does not provide horizontal adjustment beyond the 150mm reach
  • Requires proper alignment with existing ventilator units

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation is straightforward: ensure the base Manthorpe Telescopic Ventilator is properly seated, then align the extension sleeve with the primary unit. The push-fit connection requires a firm press to lock the components together. Compatibility is strictly limited to the Manthorpe telescopic ventilator series; do not attempt to force-fit with other manufacturer brands. Regarding care, the unit is largely maintenance-free; however, it is recommended to periodically inspect the exterior vent intake to ensure debris, soil, or vegetation has not obstructed the 6,600mm² airflow opening.
