Auto ventilation

Post by ChrisR »

Can I get some recommendations please for auto openers for my Alton roof vents? One of my old ones just collapsed after 20+ years with no maintenance so they don't owe me anything.

Bayliss are my preferred auto vents and I have 6 and never let me down.
All aluminium and easy to install.
Your choice of price on ebay.

If it’s just the cylinder that has failed, you can buy replacements on the internet
