  • Complies with all relevant Building Regulations.
  • Meets all relevant British Standards.
  • Manufactured by injection moulding in polypropylene.
  • Available in black only
  • Always use in conjunction with a Timloc airbrick
  • The airbrick and upper front opening of the telescopic underfloor ventilator must be positioned above the finished external ground level – usually at the same level as the ground level DPC
  • The lower rear opening of the product must project down to the level of the underfloor void and must not be obstructed by the floor construction. A vertical extension sleeve is available to fit with this product if the standard 7 course step is not adequate
  • Building Regulations require a free airflow below suspended ground floors of at least 1500mm2 per metre run of wall. This can be achieved by spacing the ventilators at 4m centres, however, such a wide spacing is not recommended as stagnant air pockets could form in the underfloor void. Timloc recommend a spacing of not more than 2m centres to comply with NHBC standards.
  • The NHBC recommend that underfloor ventilators are spaced at a maximum of 2m centres, with ventilators also positioned not more than 450mm from the ends of the wall
  • As a minimum requirement ventilators should be positioned down two opposite sides of the building so as to create a cross flow ventilation action. It is good practice to position ventilators around the full perimeter of the building, particularly with complex building designs
  • If the underfloor void is separated by dividing walls, openings must be provided to allow a free flow of air around the underfloor void
  • The standard ventilator will fit into a cavity wall with an external leaf of 100-102.5mm, a minimum cavity width of 50mm and across a cavity of 150mm plus internal 100mm. External and internal horizontal extension sleeves are available to accommodate thicker walls or wider cavities
  • To be installed with a DPC Cavity tray and wall weeps to collect any water ingress. We recommend Timloc’s IL4 and 2 weeps (IW or 1143)
  • It may be a requirement to protect with a lintel for direct loads N.B. The 1201XL+ is designed for use with a 1201AB airbrick. It can be used with a clay airbrick but this will reduce the overall airflow.
