Closing the Diffuser (for top vent configurations only)
IMPORTANT NOTE: The diffuser can be easily closed with no vent in place. Consult the vent
configuration charts to determine diffuser position. If the diffuser needs to be in the closed position,
adjust the diffuser prior to installing vent.
• To close the diffuser, reach into the vent starter section and bend the diffuser back (see photos
below). You may need a screwdriver to bend the upper portion of the diffuser 90° (see photos
below).
