Retrospective cavity wall ventilation and an ideal ventilator for timber framed buildings and external rendered wall finishes.
- Size (hole): 25mm
- Equiv area: 198mm2
- Length: 80mm
Evenly spaced at recommended 1200mm (max 1500mm) centres to vent full external wall cavities to prevent excessive moisture build up.
High level vents are located externally 200 โ 225mm below the soffit or roof barge. Low level vents should be installed minimum of 125mm below the DPC at ground level. At this level, it doubles as a drain for the cavity as well as a vent
If the cavity is bridged or closed at intermediate floor levels, cavity venting and drainage should be provided above and below the floor plate.
Identify the location at which you need to place the vent. A 25mm hole is cored typically at 750mm centres at both high and low levels. Advice in Regulations or from guarantors should be followed.
The vent has been designed to be installed at a slight angle (2.5 degrees), to minimise any wind-driven rain entering the cavity. Therefore, the hole is drilled through the external leaf with the drill inclined slightly upwards. It is recommended to use a drill with a depth setting as to avoid any damages to the internal leaf, insulation or breather membranes.
Insert and align the retro fit wall weep into the hole and tap into place using a rubber mallet. The retro fit wall weep should finish flush with the wall surface.

Instructions: How to Provide Cutting Instructions for Sheet Material
We can cut this product for you in our in-house workshop. If you would like us to do this please follow these instructions to make sure we have all of the relevant information to enable us to cut it correctly.
We need two dimensions, in millimetres, to enable us to cut your chosen material.
If the product has a grain please list the dimension in the direction of the grain first.
E.g. if you're making a wardrobe door 1800mm x 500mm and you want the grain to run vertically (the 1800mm way) you would write it as above, 1800mm x 500mm.
If you are making a drawer front 150mm x 397mm and you want the grain to run vertically (the 150mm way) you would write it 150mm x 397mm.
In some cases a sheet can be cut in more than one way to achieve the sizes you want. If you have an intended use for your off cut please tell us so we can cut the sheet in the way that yields the size of cut you would like.
For orders with large numbers of cut pieces we use computer software to calculate the most economical way to cut the sheet. We will not accept responsibility if this method doesn't yield what you were hoping for from your sheet once it has been cut.
If you are unsure about any of your cutting pleaseย contact usย before placing your order.
We offer a six day a week delivery service which is fast and convenient for getting your larger purchases home.
