FAQs
Is there a screen in the vent?
No, our dryer vent does not have a screen. It doesn't need one; the spring loaded damper keeps animals and drafts out.
Can this function as an intake vent?
No; It can’t function as an intake vent without modification because the damper only goes one way to exhaust air out, it also doesn't have a screen because it's designed for dryer venting. The easiest thing to do would be to purchase a screened vent made for intake applications.
Can I use this with a bathroom exhaust fan?
Yes; Try to match the bathroom fan exhaust outlet with the wall vent, it’s best when the diameter of the fan outlet, vent and duct are all the same e.g. if the bathroom fan’s outlet is 4 inch use a 4 inch wall vent with 4 inch ducting etc. If needed use a reducer to decrease/increase the diameter size to bridge the gap of difference from your fan to vent.
What size hole do I drill for the pipe?
The duct (pipe) is 4” inch diameter so you'll want to drill a 4-1/8" to 4-1/4" diameter hole through the wall for the duct to fit properly.
Can I mount on a roof?
No; it’s not designed for that application wall vents are designed to be installed through a side wall, you should use a roof vent.
Can the dryer wall vent be painted to match my house color?
Yes; first prep by wiping down with a solvent like lacquer thinner or paint thinner to remove all oil residue so primer will adhere properly. Then use an epoxy or etching primer as a base. Then paint it with the color matched paint.
