Designs and Uses
Victorian reproduction adjustable ventilation grilles in cast iron - either open
or closed, hence the name "hit and miss". Ideally suited to replace one for one
with existing grilles.
These new reproductions are supplied in
bare metal, and like the originals are not suitable for painting. They should be
preserved with wd40 to prevent them seizing up. To ensure they do not seize, the
clearances on these grilles are loose and therefore will not completely shut off the air
flow when closed , this is in keeping with the original design and is
unavoidable with cast iron grilles.
These are often used for general ventilation or for open fire and inglenook fire
vents.
Adjustable vent grilles may not be suitable for installing in every situation
and we would recommend taking some advice from a qualified plumber if they are
installed where they are to provide air for a heating appliance especially gas
or oil fired.

All our cast iron products are made in the UK, including these hit and miss air bricks.
These are cast from patterns made from metal, several at a time for a finer and more precise finish
and then assembled in our workshop.
