Famco sdwv8wh 8 Inch Hooded Wall Vent Screen Damper White

Product Description

The FAMCO sdwv8wh is an 8-inch hooded wall vent designed for exterior wall terminations on residential and light commercial ventilation systems. Constructed from metal, this vent includes an integrated screen to block pests and debris and a built-in damper to prevent backdraft when the system is not running. The white finish suits standard exterior wall applications. Licensed HVAC technicians and sheet metal contractors typically specify this fitting where ducted exhaust or supply air exits through an exterior wall.

This vent is suited for 8-inch round duct terminations through exterior walls on applications such as bathroom exhaust, dryer venting, range hood exhaust, and general HVAC air distribution. It is designed for standard residential and light commercial construction where a weather-resistant, hooded termination cap is required at the wall penetration point.

Key Features

• 8-inch fitting size for compatibility with standard 8-inch round duct systems
• Hooded design sheds rain and weather at the exterior wall termination
• Integrated screen blocks pests and debris from entering the duct system
• Built-in damper closes when airflow stops, reducing backdraft and heat loss
• Metal construction for durability in exterior wall installations
• White finish for a clean appearance on light-colored exterior surfaces

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style wall termination fitting for standard 8-inch round duct systems used in residential and light commercial ventilation applications.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a licensed HVAC technician or sheet metal contractor. Shut down and de-energize the associated ventilation system before cutting the wall penetration or connecting ductwork. Follow local building codes and manufacturer instructions for proper wall clearance, weatherproofing, and duct sealing at the fitting collar. Do not install in locations where the damper or screen may be obstructed by exterior cladding or trim.
