Famco CSV6WH Continuous Soffit Inlet Vent 6 in White

Product Description

The FAMCO CSV6WH is a continuous soffit inlet vent designed to provide steady, passive intake airflow along the underside of a roof soffit. Constructed from metal and finished in white, this vent measures 6 inches in width and comes in a 10-foot length, making it well suited for longer soffit runs where consistent ventilation coverage is needed. It functions as the intake side of a balanced attic ventilation system, drawing fresh outside air in at the eave level while exhaust vents at the ridge or upper roof allow warm, moist attic air to escape. Licensed contractors and experienced roofers install this component as part of code-compliant attic ventilation work.

This continuous soffit inlet vent is appropriate for residential construction and renovation projects where the soffit design calls for a linear, low-profile intake vent rather than individual round or rectangular vent inserts. A single 10-foot section covers a substantial portion of a soffit run, reducing the number of individual vent penetrations required. It is typically installed in wood or composite soffit panels and works alongside ridge vents, gable vents, or power attic ventilators to maintain proper air exchange.

Key Features

• Continuous 10-foot length reduces the number of vent penetrations needed in long soffit runs
• 6-inch width provides a consistent intake opening along the eave line
• Metal construction for durability and resistance to deformation over time
• White finish blends with standard white soffit and fascia materials
• Passive intake design requires no mechanical components or maintenance

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style soffit inlet vent for use in residential attic ventilation systems where a continuous linear intake vent is specified along the eave.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a licensed roofer or general contractor working to local building code requirements for attic ventilation ratios. The soffit panel should be measured and cut to match the vent width before fastening the vent in place. Ensure insulation baffles are installed at the eave to prevent attic insulation from blocking the intake airflow path. Always verify that the total net free area of intake venting is balanced with the exhaust venting as required by applicable building codes.
