Setup: Measuring Your Duct Opening

Accurate measurement of your existing duct opening is crucial for proper fit. Do not measure the face of your old vent, as this will result in an incorrect size selection.

1. ഘട്ടം 1: Remove your existing vent from the wall or ceiling.
2. ഘട്ടം 2: Measure the exact width and length of the actual duct opening (the hole in the wall/ceiling).
3. ഘട്ടം 3: Match these internal duct opening measurements to the Fittes product size.

If you encounter any issues with your Fittes Wall Vent, refer to the following common solutions:

• Vent Does Not Fit: Re-measure your duct opening carefully, ensuring you are measuring the internal dimensions of the duct, not the face of an old vent. If the opening is slightly off, minor adjustments to the drywall may be required for a proper fit.
• കുറഞ്ഞ വായുപ്രവാഹം: Ensure the vent is fully inserted and not obstructed by debris. If you have installed optional dampers, verify they are correctly installed and open to the desired setting.
• Vent Feels Loose: Ensure the vent is fully seated within the duct opening. If necessary, use the provided mounting screws to secure it more firmly to the surrounding wall or ceiling structure.
