Commercial vent covers, replaced in one visit.
A damaged vent cover can quietly create major building issues: backdrafts, pest entry, lint buildup, heat loss, and avoidable code concerns. We replace worn commercial vent covers with properly fitted, sealed Thermo-Trap systems built for real Canadian weather and high-use environments.

Why businesses upgrade
One proper replacement improves year-round vent performance and reduces nuisance service calls tied to drafts, pests, and airflow loss.
- Airflow and backdraft performance
- Pest-blocking physical barrier
- Airtight seal at rest
- Code-conscious installation
- Minimal disruption scheduling
A single installer averages 40 vents in a working day on a mid-size building. Larger crews scale from there. Lift work included.

Leave a name and number and we'll walk the building with you, free. If you'd rather start now, a photo of the worst vent shows us the size and mounting before we roll a lift.

What this service solves
Worn commercial vent covers cause backdrafts, pests, and heat loss.
In higher-demand buildings, old vent covers fail faster. Cracking, warping, failed flaps, and weak seals can lead to energy loss, contamination risk, pest entry, and avoidable pressure on HVAC equipment. This service replaces weak vent endpoints with properly matched components and clean installation detail.
- Airflow reliability Free exhaust and stable intake, even under heavy daily usage.
- Lower leakage Airtight closure at rest cuts the heated and cooled air you lose.
- Pest defense Physically blocks bird and rodent entry at the vent terminal.
- Code confidence CSA-approved product, installed to documented best practice.

Where we install
The buildings that wear out vent covers fastest.
We replace and upgrade vent covers across common commercial and mixed-use building types.
Dryer exhaust vents
Laundromats and care homes: high lint and moisture need covers that seal when idle.- Kitchen exhaust points Grease-prone systems need covers that resist blockage and discharge reliably.
- Washroom and utility fans Cuts moisture intrusion and draft complaints in high-traffic washrooms.
- Intake and air exchanger terminals Reversible intake-safe models keep fresh air moving without cold backflow.
