VENTI FORM Bullnose Stainless Steel Grille: The Architectural Statement Piece for 100mm & 150mm Ventilation Fans
Upgrade your ventilation system with the VENTI FORM stainless steel exhaust grille, available in 100mm or 150mm connection sizes. Precision-engineered for standard ventilation ducts, this exterior vent cover delivers both high performance and timeless design.
Key Features & Design Precision
- 304 Grade Brushed Stainless Steel: Provides a premium, high-impact aesthetic that transforms a necessity into a statement piece. It is the gold standard for high-grade exterior hardware.
- Integrated Water Drip Attachment: A vital feature designed to minimise the risk of water damage and staining to the sensitive brickwork or rendered façade directly below the vent.
- Bullnose Shape Design: This distinctive, functional shape directs airflow efficiently while providing a more polished, seamless look compared to bog-standard flat louvre grilles.
- Built-in Flyscreen Mesh: Effectively keeps pests, vermin, and unwanted debris out of your MVHR or dMEV system, protecting system integrity and air quality.
- Universal Duct Sizing: Available in two primary sizes (100mm and 150mm) to accommodate a wide range of fan types, including single-room MVHR and continuous dMEV units.
Engineered for Protection and Aesthetic Harmony
For the discerning homeowner or architect, the details matter. This grille goes beyond simple air passage; it is an act of property preservation and design integrity.
- Aesthetic Integration: The VENTI-FORM grille allows architects and installers to hide vent openings that would otherwise disrupt the visual harmony of a façade, a critical need for modern and heritage architectural designs. It offers a seamless look that helps to clear the visual clutter often caused by multiple, inadequate trickle vents.
- Corrosion Resistance: The use of 304 stainless steel ensures superior resistance to the elements, maintaining its polished appearance and preventing corrosion over time. This makes it an ideal choice for properties across the UK, even in areas with higher salt or pollution levels.
- Easy, Assured Installation: Designed to simplify the process for trades, the cover features pre-drilled fixing holes, built-in mounting clips, and a rubber seal gasket. This guarantees a neat, airtight fit with minimal fuss, reducing the common anxiety about “bodged work” and installation hassle.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
1. Why is the Water Drip Attachment so important?
Many standard flat grilles allow water runoff to drip directly onto the wall below, which over time causes unsightly staining, algae growth, and potential damage to the rendering or brickwork. The integrated water drip attachment guides water away from the façade, preserving your home’s exterior and reducing long-term maintenance costs.
2. Can I use this grille to replace a window trickle vent?
This external grille is the premium terminal for a proper mechanical ventilation system (like dMEV or MVHR). It is used to terminate the duct of the fan system. It is a key element in removing or avoiding unsightly trickle vents and transitioning to the superior, ducted ventilation the Building Regulations are promoting.
3. How does the Bullnose shape benefit my ventilation system?
The bullnose design is highly functional as it helps optimise airflow while providing excellent weather protection. Aesthetically, it provides a much more polished and deliberate look than a standard flat grille, turning a necessary component into an integrated design feature.
4. Is this grille easy to install for a builder/electrician?
Yes. The package includes all necessary components for a simple, secure installation, including the rubber seal, mounting clips, and screws. Our design philosophy ensures that installation is fast and simple, removing the hassle often associated with retrofitting high-grade components.
