Benefits of the XVentbox

Keep the outside & inside air separate

XVent Box is designed to keep the outside and inside air separate. Differences in air moisture content and/ or temperatures between interior and exterior environments can create conditions in which mold can thrive. Left untreated, mold spores can have toxic effects on the local environment, and be a costly repair to the affected areas.

Prevent water intrusion past the building envelope

The molding process creates a monolithic box cavity that combined with an integrated balanced gravity damper XVent Box provides a superior barrier against wind driven rain.

Our products successfully prevent water from breaching the exterior building envelope, even in extreme conditions like hurricanes or high wind events.


Prevents sand & debris infiltration

XVent Box models prevent sand and debris from infiltration. Sand and debris entering and collecting in ductwork can damage attached appliances (dryers, kitchen hoods, bathroom exhaust fans), as well as reduce efficiencies. Our design keeps out debris carried by wind.

Ease of Maintenance

Our Products are designed to require minimum to no maintenance. The recessed cavity boxes and in-line sleeves contain only one or two moving parts (gavoty dampers) depending on the model. Annual inspections and maintenance are recommended.

Critter Proof

Birds and other critters continue to find new ways and places to nest in and around buildings and homes. Without effective control, these critters could negatively impact your ventilation systems as well as impose danger onto themselves. XVent Box has designed their ventilation boxes with a front louver that allows for proper air flow but prevents birds or other creatures from taking residence.

In other words our design makes it “Critter Proof” preventing birds or squirrels from accessing the duct, and insect access is unlikely.

BENEFITS OF THE XVENTBOX

XVentBox incorporates a removable front louver and an integrated back draft damper for easy inspection and maintenance without damaging any weather-tight seals.

When wind encounters the basic vent cap it rattles the damper (if there is any), or even rips it off. People in beach/lakefront residences often find themselves kept up at night by wind.

Our unique design makes use of windy conditions to make the damper close more securely, eliminating wind generated noises.

The front louver allows for proper air flow but prevents birds or other creatures from taking residence. Dealing with animal feces, and noise associated with nest-building, are not pleasant either.
