Architectural Ventilation Grilles and Cowls

The External Vent That Looks Like It Was Meant To Be There.

Quiet Perfection on the Exterior. The external grille is the final, visible seal on your project. Stop compromising on design. Our FORM and VERTEX series are precision-engineered to deliver essential Part F airflow and acoustic compliance while maintaining façade integrity down to the last brick.

VERTEX Vent Wind Baffles

The only premium vent baffle engineered for maximum acoustic performance and almost zero wind noise.

SKYLINE High Rise Ventilation Kit

The SKYLINE High Rise Ventilation cowl kit is perfect if you do not have access to install a new vent (no scaffolding needed!)

FORM Stainless Bullnose Vent Grilles

Stop Compromising Your Façade. Upgrade to the Statement Piece.

Window Fitting Ventilation Adapter Kit

The gravity grille adapter kit is used to install extractor fans through a window, while the fixed grille version is used for alternate-flow srMVHR units.

FAQs

How can I ensure a new external vent doesn’t ruin the look of my house?

The deepest form of relief is knowing your design vision wasn’t compromised. Our architectural grilles solve the Aesthetic-Acoustic Dilemma for UK homeowners and specifiers. While most external terminals are plastic afterthoughts, VENTI grilles are designed to feel like they “were meant to be there.” We use high-grade, non-corrosive materials (like marine-grade stainless steel) and engineered coatings to achieve a low-profile visual aesthetic that blends seamlessly with the brickwork and façade, ensuring the quiet relief of perfection is maintained.

 

What makes your grilles “architectural” instead of just functional?

The difference lies in design intent and engineering effort. Functional vents only meet the minimum airflow requirement; architectural grilles, like our FORM and VERTEX series, treat the external terminal as a permanent, visible fixture. This means:

  1. Materiality: Using durable metals over standard uPVC.
  2. Visual Profile: Engineered for minimal projection from the wall.
  3. Longevity: Designed to resist corrosion and UV damage for decades, preventing the “ruined look” of a faded, cheap fix.

 

Are the external grilles noticeable, or are they designed to be discrete?

They are designed to achieve Quiet Perfection by being as visually discrete as possible while performing optimally. The VERTEX series, in particular, features a minimalistic profile and neutral colour options (Grey, Terracotta, Black) specifically chosen to recede against popular UK building materials. When an external vent is correct, you shouldn’t notice it, and that’s the ultimate sign of façade integrity maintained.

 

How do your acoustic wind baffles actually reduce noise from outside?

Our wind baffles are shutterless and operate using principles of Acoustic Attenuation. Unlike cheap vents that use noisy, flapping shutters, the internal engineering of the VERTEX baffle unit is designed to manage airflow turbulence. This specialized, non-moving structure effectively diffuses and dampens external noise (such as wind, traffic, and high-frequency sounds) as it passes through the terminal, ensuring that the necessary air exchange occurs without introducing unwelcome noise irritation into the home.

 

Can a high-performance external cowl prevent wind-driven rain from entering the duct?

Yes. The primary function of an external cowl or grille (beyond airflow) is water ingress protection. Our precision-engineered designs, particularly those with dedicated baffles, create a sophisticated path that forces rain and wind-driven moisture to drain externally, preventing water from being sucked into the ductwork and compromising your mechanical ventilation units (such as ARIA or FLUXO).
