Rytons A1® Fire-rated Periscope® Underfloor Ventilator with Single Air Brick

General Details
  • A tailor-made metal ‘Z’ shape Periscope® sub-floor ventilator.
  • Made from Class A1 fire-rated galvanised steel and compliant with regulations for the requirement of non-combustible materials in the external walls of high-rise buildings over 18m (11m in Scotland) and those 11m and above undergoing unsafe cladding remediation work.
  • Three air brick grille styles satisfy the varying design, airflow, and vent placement requirements of buildings.  For cladding, flanged options cover cut edges to maintain the external appearance.
  • Custom powder coated air brick.  Choose from the RAL Classic colour chart in matt, semi-gloss or gloss finish (achieving Class A2-s1, d0) for an air brick that matches cladding or brickwork.  Signature architectural coatings are also available.
  • Built-in weather protection.  Drainage holes in the air brick provide discreet water outlets, and louvred styles feature angled grilles to promote runoff, reducing the risk of water transfer into the duct.
  • Installed using standard mortar joints for a neat appearance in brickwork.

  • No screw fixing or sealing required, saving time, labour and ensuring correct alignment and airtight joints throughout.

  • Telescopic fitting air brick gives the flexibility to handle minor variations in the external façade.
