CAD Files & Technical Documents 

The Gerard Free-flow Port is an integrated extraction ventilation solution for new builds and roof refurbishments, and provides an outlet for both passive and mechanically vented spaces.

This low profile 20,000mm2 vent provides a 160mm diameter outlet, and can be provided with a reducer down to Ø 150/130/125/110/100mm enabling it to be connected as a ducted vent for bathroom, kitchen, or laundry extraction systems. It can also be used as a passive vent to allow moist or hot air to escape from the space below the roof.

The design of the Gerard Free-flow Port (LV200 series) allows rain to be diverted from the outlet, and a built in protective grille keeps out insects and drifting snow.

• Discreet, low-profile solution suitable for both mechanical and passive vent systems.

• Ideal solution for kitchen, bathroom, laundry areas.

• 160mm outlet, can be reduced to Ø 150/130/125/110/100mm.
