Vents

The vents allow proper ventilation of the house to prevent odors and condensation that endanger our health and safety. With the vents we ensure that housing have a permanent renewal of the air.

In Bricolemar you'll find grids of different sizes and shapes: square, rectangular, round ... as well as various materials, whether plastic or metal, and different finishes: white, silver or woodgrain. Choose from those placed on surface with screws or which are embedded in the wall. There's even grills with mosquito netting to let the air but not these insufferable insects.

Although grids are used in a multitude of areas that need to be ventilated and make them safe from moisture such as storage rooms, closets, garages, etc., its use is concentrated mainly in kitchens and bathrooms.

In the kitchen it is essential to evacuate vapors, fumes and odors when they 're cooking. Much of that work will achieve it with a hood but we must have an air outlet to the outside that has a grid. If in addition the kitchen is gas, we comply with regulations requiring approved placing the grids in concrete heights so they can leave the combustion gases that otherwise could lead to accidents.

In the bathroom the problems focus on odors and moisture , and if we live in a building with shunt system that connects through an exhaust pipe all bathrooms on that side of the building, meets grid with that dual function: on the one hand steam removal and moisture, and on the other make the bad odors leave.

In any case, our recommendation is to keep clean and clear the vents to prevent accidents and to fulfill its role properly. And if needed, proceed to its replacement with similar models while maintaining the original measures.
