They do make a vent cover that is designed to go in the soffit.


Would you happen to know where these can be purchased or a web link
that gives more information on this?

thanks


I bought two through-the-soffit vents for the remodel of my upstairs
bathrooms from the local borg (Home Depot or Lowe's, can't remember which).
These are relatively inexpensive plastic units with a screened opening and a
snap on hood. Quite easy to hook up from the outside of the house if there
is a bit of slack in the flexible duct -- just cut the opening in the
correct place, pull the duct through, clamp in over the snout, and screw the
vent in place. This is FAR easier than messing about in the attic,
especially if you have a lot of insulation up there.
