8-Inch Automatic Make-Up Air Damper - MD8T

BROAN interlocked make-up air dampers provide make-up air when called for to keep the home comfortable by allowing the range hood to operate at optimum levels

Directwire design works with select BROAN range hoods to balance indoor air pressure by providing interlocked make-up air; damper opens automatically when the range hood is activated

Slave dampers (MD6S, MD8S or MD10S) are interlocked to the main automatic or universal make-up air damper and open in unison for synchronized operation. They close, along with the main damper, as soon as the range hood is powered off. Slave dampers can be “ganged” together to provide a cost effective means to provide for higher volumes of make-up air

Can be used to meet International Residential Code (IRC)-based requirements for make-up air

Interlocked make-up air systems avoid wasted energy associated with barometric solutions and do not let unwanted air into the home during heating or cooling activities so air pressure is equalized for a well-balanced environment

Fresh air wall caps are required for use with Make-Up Air Dampers
