Installation Guidance:

InvisiWeep vents are designed for easy installation in perpendicular joints, acting as a reliable drainage channel wherever water could collect inside a cavity wall. Here are simple steps to ensure correct installation:

1. Position the Invisi Weep Vents directly on top of the base of a cavity tray, DPC, or on the front edge of a lintel to ensure effective water drainage and building ventilation.
2. Install wall weeps at 450mm centres above openings, with a minimum of two to comply with NHBC recommendations.
3. For wider walls and render finishes, simply push the weep tube extension into the open end of the Invisi Weep Vent and cut to the required size.

Ensure the InvisiWeep is kept clear of mortar to prevent blockage, particularly at the cavity side of the weep which could be blocked by mortar droppings from above.
