What does “hit and miss” mean on a ventilation grille?

What does “hit and miss” mean on a ventilation grille?

A hit and miss vent has a sliding plate on the reverse of the grille that can be moved to open or close the ventilation apertures. This allows airflow to be regulated without removing or replacing the grille. The vent can be fully open, partially open, or fully closed depending on ventilation requirements.

What pipe connection sizes do your cast iron hopper heads accept?

What pipe connection sizes do your cast iron hopper heads accept?

Our cast iron hopper heads are available with 65mm, 75mm and 100mm round outlets, 75mm, 100mm and 125mm square outlets, and 100x75mm, 125x100mm and 150x125mm rectangular outlets, to match the downpipe already on site or specified for the project.

How does the ornamental pattern affect ventilation performance?

How does the ornamental pattern affect ventilation performance?

The Gothic foliate tracery design of the Ornamental Airbrick provides a good free-flow ventilation area relative to its face size. The open area is comparable to other standard cast iron airbrick patterns. The visual density of the pattern at a distance reads as solid ironwork, which suits formal and decorative elevations without compromising subfloor ventilation effectiveness.

What building types is the Satin Chrome Rooflight Hand Winder Opener suited to?

The satin chrome telescopic rooflight hand winder is well suited to contemporary and transitional interiors where a brushed chrome finish complements modern or minimal ironmongery. It is compatible with Lumen Rooflights and timber-framed skylights.

Yes. Cast iron rainwater goods are widely accepted by conservation officers and historic environment bodies as the appropriate material for listed buildings.

A linseed oil paint finish is also available, which is particularly appropriate for conservation projects.

Can the Iron Works Hit & Miss Vent be used externally?

The Antique Black cast iron version is suitable for external use.

The Polished Brass version is suited to interior and semi-exposed locations. For external applications on exposed elevations, the Antique Black finish is the recommended specification.
