1. Before applying the VENT-TREX unit to the window head, it is recommended VENT-TREX unit and host
window are measured to ensure correct fit to structural opening without obstruction.
2. Apply silicone sealant (such as non-acidic low modulus silicone rubber to BS 5889: 1989) to top of window
head section towards outside edge.
3. Fit VENT-TREX unit to window head ensuring gasket makes good contact.
4. Pre drill screw fixing holes along V groove located on overhead section. For units up to 900mm two 4.5mm
0 pan head screw fixings are recommended as close to ends as practicable (without interfering with
window joints). For units over 900mm additional intermediate fixings are recommended at approx 700mm
maximum hole centres.
Do not over tighten fixing screws.
5. Fit window complete with VENT-TREX into opening. Ensure electrical flex is not hindered.
6. Point gap between VENT-TR EX and surrounding substrate externally to provide weatherseal using silicone
sealant (such as non-acidic low modulus silicone rubber to BS 5889: 1989).
Cut pull cord to suitable length for operation.
Sealant is not necessary along edge of VENT-TREX adjacent to window profile. (See Diagram Below)
