Hi --
I'm in the process of installing an Envirovent 2 in my new studio space
(hurrah!) and am having a little trouble with getting the external
portion of the vent covered.
The motor and vent are wall-mounted, and the pipe/flange piece that
goes to the exterior protrudes several inches from the exterior wall. I
think the instructions call for a dryer vent cover, and the Skutt site
(http://www.skutt.com/products/enviro2.html) shows some sort of curved
cover on the outside. However all the duct and dryer vent covers we've
found at the hardware store are designed to be more or less flush to
the exterior wall -- we've got about 6 inches of pipe sticking out of
our exterior wall so that won't work.
Is there some commercial/industrial vent cover that would work better?
Has anyone jury rigged something?
Thanks so much,
Jeanine Finn
Austin, Texas
