Timloc Universal Hooded Slate Vent

The Timloc Universal Hooded Slate Vent is a discreet, practical solution for ventilating both new build and existing slate roofs. Designed to seamlessly replace a single roof slate, this vent is compatible with standard slate sizes of 600mm x 300mm or 500mm x 250mm, providing effective ventilation without disrupting the visual appearance of the roof. Whether you’re ventilating a roof space at low or high level, connecting to a bathroom or kitchen extraction fan, or using it as an outlet for a soil vent pipe, this vent offers excellent versatility and airflow performance.

Ventilation That Blends In

With a free ventilation area of 10,000mm², this hooded vent supports healthy air circulation within roof spaces, helping to minimise condensation and maintain a dry, well-ventilated environment. The inconspicuous low-profile hood not only allows for a subtle appearance but also protects the internal grille from rainwater ingress, ensuring long-term functionality. This vent is suitable for roof pitches of 22.5° and above and is ideal for heritage-style or contemporary slate roofs where maintaining aesthetics is just as important as performance.

Simple Installation and Adaptable Use

Lightweight and easy to handle, the vent is straightforward to install by replacing a single slate. The 4mm-spaced external grille prevents the entry of large insects, vermin, and debris while maintaining excellent airflow. For internal connections, the vent can be used with the optional 4101 pipe adapter kit, which provides a 110mm duct connection, making it suitable for ducted extraction systems in bathrooms, kitchens, or soil vent piping.
