Slope Mounted Ventilators


The Robertson Slope Mounted (RSM) ventilator is a natural ventilation system ideally suited to applications where ventilation needs are not complicated or where rapid installation into existing buildings is required. It is particularly well suited to use on existing buildings and for areas requiring spot ventilation such as warehouses and light industrial workshops.

The RSM ventilator was designed to provide optimum performance for its type, as well as a low, streamlined appearance. Available in three sizes, the RSM ventilator meets most requirements for localised natural extract.
