STEP 6

Wood vents, like hardwood floor have natural colour variation.  
For a smooth installation that looks aesthetically pleasing it’s 
best to hand select and feather, like coloured flooring planks 
around the vent. 

STEP 7

On a table saw or chop saw cut and fit your hardwood flooring 
so that it fits tight and flush to the frame of the vent.  Do not 
leave a gap, the frame should fit tight to the edge of your 
hardwood flooring.

STEP 8

Insert the vent assembly into the frame.  Adjust the damper to 
your preferred airflow output (some products do not come with 
a damper).

STEP 4

Carefully making sure the frame has not shifted, use a #6 
finishing nail to attach one corner of the frame to the sub-floor.  
Use a nail set to drive the finishing nail into the recessed wood.  
Avoid using a mallet or hammer to directly drive the finishing 
nail into place as this can damage the rabbeted edge of the 
wood frame.

STEP 5

Repeat step 4 on each corner so that you have two nails per 
side inside the rabbeted edge of the frame firmly securing the 
frame to the sub-floor.
