Ceiling Opening
The ceiling opening size is the nominal size of the Multi-Vent Laminar Flow Panel, or the sum of the nominal sizes for
adjacent, butting units in a built-up assembly. For example, the ceiling opening for a single, 24" x 48" panel is 24" x 48".
For (2) 24" x 48" panels arranged to form an overall assembly of 48" x 48", the ceiling opening required is 48" x 48".
Installation
Each Multi-Vent panel shall be individually supported by threaded rod, straps, or hanger wire. Hanger Wires are
preferred, as both threaded rod and straps require field drilling of the frame body, and present obstacles which make
routine cleaning more difficult. Methods and materials, gauge & size, # of supports, and spacing shall be in accordance
with applicable codes and as specified in contract documents & drawings. Each Multi-Vent panel comes with integral
hanger brackets that can be used with the hanger wire method of support. These “bend out” hanger brackets are located
at the four corners of the frame body:

The sheet metal screws and speed nuts (shown in Butt Joint edge detail) are used to pull adjacent Multi-Vent panels
together, in the horizontal plane. and are not designed to carry vertical loads.
With the proper ceiling opening and support straps, wires, or rods located and attached to the structure above,
installation is easiest by hanging individual Multi-Vent Panels, one at a time. Access above the ceiling will be required,
either through a formal access door, or through some other opening. The panel face may be removed from the unit at
the floor level, for easier handling and to access the inside of the frame body to screw attach adjacent units together.
As each unit is suspended & leveled within the ceiling opening, duct attachment can conveniently be made with
minimal “reach”. Adjacent units are subsequently suspended, leveled, screw attached to other units, etc., until the
assembly is completed. Sealant may be required between the Multi-Vent units and ceiling cut-out edge to prevent
leakage between the ceiling plenum and space below.
