By locating the vents in this position, there will now be
horizontal airflow. Caution should be exercised when locating
vents in the horizontal position. Avoid placing vents directly
below sinks or other locations people will be for extended
periods of time.

Rough-In Caps are used during construction to prevent
damage during construction from drywall dust, saw dust,
stipple ceiling, paint and other small particles from clogging
and damaging the Rough-in Boot and Fan coil unit.
In floor applications simply place the cap over the boot
before installing the boot. In ceilings or sidewall applications it
may be necessary to tape the cap on to the Rough-in boot to
hold into place prior to installation. To prevent damage during
construction, do not cut out the Rough-In Caps until the vent
plates are ready to be installed.
Installing Vents in Kick Spaces
In kitchens and bathrooms, it is sometimes hard to find
a “low traffic area”, so an alternative is to locate the vents in
the kick space under the counters. Our Vent plates have a 4”
(102mm) or 5” (127mm) diameter, which may not fit in all kick
spaces without trimming. This can easily be done by trimming
the top and bottom of our vent plate so it fits. HE outlets are not
recommended for kick spaces.
The easiest way to install the round vent plates in the kick
space is to trim off two edges of the plate. (Fig. OTL-05).

Once a suitable unobstructed location has been chosen for the
vent placement, use a 3” (76mm) hole saw to drill an opening
large enough for the Rough-In Boot with a Rough-In Cap
(Fig.
OTL-03)
. For HE, use 3 3/4” (94mm) hole saw.
