Open Gable Louver or Closed Gable Louver
An open gable louver leaves a passage between the slats so air can move. A closed louver keeps the outer shape and uses a solid face, so the wall looks like a vent and does not act as one.
Use an open louver in a framed opening when that gable is part of how the attic breathes. Use a closed louver where the wall is already sealed, or where the elevation only needs the profile. These parts are not a ridge vent, a soffit vent, or a roof turbine.
Shapes include rectangle, round, half-round, triangle, arch-top, and round or oval with a keystone. LOR 24 is a 24 inch round open louver. LCRT 1224 is a closed rectangle, 12 by 24. Confirm open versus closed on the plate before you order.
