#1 Q:   So this if for exhaust and intake. Do I just remove the damper for intake?
A:   That is exactly how it is used for intake. The damper is removable.

       Asked on 2023-05-10 by Simon
#2 Q:   Is this compatible with a range hood with 1200 CFM? Will have 8 inch duct.
A:   Its compatible with typical 8 inch duct airflows which are 500 to 850 cfm. You will have a large pressure drop trying to push 1200 cfm through and 8 inch duct and 8 inch cap.

#3 Q:   How much heat can these withstand? I am looking to vent a hood for an outdoor kitchen (Propane grill) through the soffit to avoid putting holes in the patio roof.
A:   There is no official rating from the manufacturer but they are designed to vent typical HVAC exhaust air streams. Normally up to 140 F.

#4 Q:   looking for SV28 without the screen (SV28NS) to utilize for a dryer vent. It does not appear you carry this model. Is the screen that comes on the SV28 removable?
A:   We do not carry the SV28NS version. Sorry. The screen is not removable.

#5 Q:   1.What is the length of the snap in adapter?2. Can this vent works with 70 cfm air flow pressure of bathroom exhaust fan?
A:   The adapter is 4 inches long. That vent should be fine with that cfm and opens easily.

#6 Q:   I have an older home and the exhaust pipe is 3 diameter metal. Do you have a 3 to 4 adapter that will allow me to use the SV28 Soffit Exhaust Vent?
A:   We do not. Sorry. That is no longer a common size.

       Asked on 2020-06-03 by WB
#7 Q:   Is this supposed to be screwed into the bottom of the soffit where the flaneIs visible? Or can we install inside the soffit, cut a square the. Drop the vent through the hole?The large flange is a bit unsightly, if installed on the outside of the soffit we can trim away. Also, the unit says do not install beyond soffit, can you guys elaborate or post a photo of one of these installed?
A:   It can be installed inside the soffit. Have a look at the picture here: https://www.primexvents.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/Spec_Sheet_SV28-Series_2018.pdf

       Asked on 2020-02-11 by Joey
#8 Q:   Can this handle 400 cfm air flow for an exhaust fan?
A:   Yes. That is within the allowed CFM for these.

#9 Q:   I bought the SV28-01 with the RV28-4 adapter. I dont think it will come in time for my contractor to install it for me. I would have to have him drill the hole at least so that once it comes in, I can just insert it. I cant find the instructions for what size hole to drill in the soffit. Can you point me to something? Also, is the adapter I bought meant for soffit instillation or something else?
A:   The RV28-4 converts the square opening to round for a duct connection. I would show your contractor the spec sheet which has the base dimension. They should be able to figure it out based on that. https://www.hvacquick.com/catalog_files/Primex_SV28_Specs.pdf

       Asked on 2019-09-02 by Eddie
#10 Q:   My soffit has a 5.5 / 12 pitch. Would the door be in closed position in the normal fan off situation?
A:   No. This soffit vent is meant for horizontal installation. If you install on a pitched soffit, the door would not close properly.

       Asked on 2019-08-12 by Tony
#11 Q:   Can I cut the flange down?
A:   Yes, you can trim the flange as needed.

       Asked on 2019-05-26 by Pete
#12 Q:   Is this vent paintable?
A:   Yes it is a paintable plastic.

       Asked on 2018-03-10 by Larry
#13 Q:   Im looking for the snap in adapters (sold separately) for the sv28-01 soffit vent in 8 in duct.
A:   Same page, couple of lines below the SV28-01. Part number RV28-# where # is the duct connection size.
