Gibraltar Building Products TW146-1/8 Operating instructions

  • Hello! I'm your chat assistant. I've reviewed the installation guidelines for GIBRALTAR two-way vents, specifically the TW144, TW146, and TW148 models. These guidelines cover the size specifications, installation steps, and safety precautions. I'm ready to help with any questions you may have about installing your vents.
  • What is the minimum size difference between the opening and the vent size?
    How many fastener guides are on each vent?
    What is required when working with power tools during installation?
The opening should be at least 1 inch smaller than the vent size. 1. Remove old vent and any loose debris from opening.
2. Apply a bead of sealant to the vent ange or wall. 3. Using the partial punched corner fastener guides (4 per vent),
fasten vent with nails or screws.

CAUTION! Working above grade is inherently dangerous, be sure that proper fall protection measures
are in place. When working with power tools, gloves and eye protection are absolutely required.
