• Opens when the fan runs to allow exhaust to flow through the vent
• Closes when the fan is off to prevent cold air, smells, and pests from entering
• Stops rattling or restricted airflow caused by a stuck or damaged flap
• Works as the airflow control element inside the vent housing or duct

• One damper assembly

• Disconnect power to the appliance before starting any repair
• Access the vent or hood housing per the appliance service instructions; removal of grille or access panel may be required
• Remove the old damper and any mounting hardware; install the new damper in the same orientation
• Check that the damper moves freely after installation and that duct connections are secure

• Helps limit dust and unwanted airflow through seams
• Commonly used where original foam has deteriorated or compressed

• One foam seal/strip as shown

• Clean and dry mating surfaces before applying for best adhesion
