Riverstone Industries Mont Automatic Roof Vent Kit

No, the vent opener is heat-activated. It uses a wax-filled cylinder that expands as temperatures rise to automatically open the vent, requiring no batteries or electrical connection.

While designed for Mont greenhouses, the kit features a universal fit. However, you should verify that your greenhouse frame can accommodate the 24-inch by 24-inch vent dimensions before purchasing.

Yes, this kit is specifically designed to be compatible with interior shade cloth. The installation process accounts for the cloth, so you can maintain climate control without interfering with your shading system.

The black finish is a durable, professional-grade coating designed to match black-framed greenhouses seamlessly. It is built to withstand the humid, high-temperature environment of a greenhouse without peeling or fading.

The automatic opener is largely maintenance-free during the growing season. We recommend removing the wax cylinder during freezing winter months to prevent damage from extreme cold, which will help extend the life of the mechanism.

The kit is designed for straightforward installation and includes all necessary parts. Most users find they can complete the assembly and mounting in a single afternoon with basic household tools.
