Where can I get this item?
People,
where can I find a lower cost wall vent cap cover? low profile mount onto stucco. wal cap 8 inch diameter louvered type found $270 at Copperlabs [aka Vents USA] in MN and $180 at Thunderbird in CA I'm convinced that it would be best to have louvered in addition to the damper inside at the stove top hood. But these prices seem a bit high for a metal box, some 'flippy' vanes, and a short 8 inch diameter tube. Anyone know of another outlet? with lower prices? |

Try this place: http://www.famcomfg.com/wall-vents.html They have a plastic one for 12 bucks, and a variety of metal types for under 50. HTH, Paul F. |

The metal ones shown all have that ugly sloped exterior. The plastic 'moveable' louvered one is closest, but does not have the flashing for stucco. Plus, being in AZ the sun will take out most plastic in ??, well, no time at all. Even the baked on epoxy paint does not fair well here. But, then again, plastic for 18.44 vs 180 for copper |
