Artis Metals PSDWV6WH Hooded Wall Vent 6 Inches White

Product Description

The ARTIS METALS PSDWV6WH is a 6-inch hooded wall vent designed for exterior wall terminations in residential and light commercial HVAC and ventilation applications. It ships with an integral screen and a built-in damper that closes when the system is not operating, blocking backflow, drafts, and pest entry. The hood profile directs exhaust downward and away from the wall surface, helping to prevent moisture intrusion. HVAC technicians and general contractors typically install this vent as the exterior termination point for bath exhaust fans, dryer ducts, range hood runs, or fresh-air intake lines.

This vent is suited for through-wall installations where a 6-inch round duct terminates at an exterior building surface. The white finish allows it to blend with light-colored siding and trim. The included damper provides passive backdraft control without requiring any electrical connection, making it appropriate for both gravity-exhaust and fan-assisted systems in residential new construction and retrofit work.

Key Features

• 6-inch nominal diameter fits standard 6-inch round duct systems
• Hooded exterior design deflects exhaust downward to reduce moisture intrusion
• Integrated damper closes automatically when system is idle to block backdraft and pests
• Built-in screen provides additional barrier against insects and debris
• White finish suitable for light-colored exterior surfaces

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation wall vent for residential and light commercial exhaust and ventilation systems using 6-inch round duct.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by an HVAC technician, sheet metal contractor, or general contractor. Cut the exterior wall penetration to match the duct diameter and ensure the duct run is properly supported before connecting the vent. Seal around the exterior flange with an appropriate weatherproof sealant to prevent moisture intrusion. Follow all applicable local mechanical codes and manufacturer guidelines for duct-to-fitting connections.
