The FreshVent Air Intake is the latest wall vent termination from InOvate, creator of the DryerWallVent and Premium WallVent. Designed for aesthetics and performance, with some of the same great features, such as the rain drip edge and low-profile sleek-lines, the FreshVent creates a uniform and clean look. Made of deep drawn 22-gauge Galvalume® Steel and Polyester TGIC Powder Coating, the FreshVent is designed for durability with the same toughness as the DryerWallVent and Premium WallVent.
Benefits of Fresh Air in the Home
Modern construction of energy efficient and airtight — or tight — homes are sealed to reduce heating and cooling costs. The lack of fresh air inside a tight home creates negative pressure, occurring when too much air is exhausted from the home and not enough replacement air enters. A few signs of negative pressure in the living space include cold drafts, odors that linger in the home and the presence of mold or mildew.
Bringing outside air into the living space through a fresh air intake vent will create the balanced environment the home needs. Improving the quality of the indoor air helps to dilute household odors and reduce the concentration of airborne contaminants and allergens, leading to a cleaner, healthier living space.
The FreshVent
Introducing the FreshVent from InOvate, an exterior vent that is designed to bring fresh air into HVAC Systems, HRV or ERV Systems and Make-up Air Units. This transfer of fresh outdoor air is channeled throughout the living space to improve the overall quality of inside air.
The exchange of oxygen-rich air stops mold and virus particles in their tracks!
The 2021 International Mechanical Code (IMC) requires fresh outside air to be introduced into habitable spaces and provides strict guidelines for vent location and placement.
Engineering
The FreshVent’s innovative design incorporates a low profile with clean lines to give it a sleek look, contributing to the overall aesthetics of the home’s exterior.
Proudly made in the USA, the high-quality FreshVent is constructed from 22-gauge Galvalume steel with a heavy application of Polyester TGIC Powder Coating that’s oven cured to perfection. The result is a tough, corrosion-resistant, shiny and long-lasting finish. Standing up to the elements, this vent outperforms plastic versions in strength and longevity and resists fading and cracking, even after prolonged exposure to harsh sunlight and elevated temperatures.
Product Advantages
Like the DryerWallVent and Premium Wall Vent, the FreshVent has a built-in drip edge that provides layers of protection against the elements. The louvered assembly, held in place by a stainless-steel hinge and pin, lifts upwards to reveal special high-strength integrated N52 magnets that keep it in place during all types of weather. A built-in stainless-steel screen provides added protection against pests.
TheFreshVent is easily accessible for cleaning and maintenance.
The FreshVent is available for 4-inch ducting:
- FreshVent, 4-inch 6.5” w X 6.45” h, with 4-inch collar
Available color options are white, tan, brown, and black. For larger projects, ask about custom RAL color match options.
