Material Degradation in High Temperatures

The performance of Acoustic Vents in high-temperature environments is primarily influenced by their material composition, structural design, and long-term exposure conditions. For most standard Acoustic Vents, prolonged exposure to high temperatures can gradually degrade their core components, starting with the sound insulation materials.

Mechanical Stability Concerns

High temperatures also affect the mechanical stability of Acoustic Vents. Plastic or rubber parts, such as gaskets, seals, and frame components, are prone to aging and hardening under high heat.

Hardened seals can lose their elasticity, leading to poor sealing between the vent and the installation surface—this not only causes sound leakage but also disrupts air circulation balance. In extreme cases, overheated plastic frames may warp or deform, altering the vent's internal airflow path and reducing ventilation efficiency.

For example, in industrial workshops or attic spaces where summer temperatures often soar, poorly heat-resistant vents may struggle to maintain consistent airflow, resulting in stuffy indoor conditions.

High-Temperature Resistant Designs

However, the extent of performance decline varies with vent quality and heat-resistant design. High-temperature-resistant Acoustic Vents, engineered with materials like fiberglass-reinforced plastic (FRP) or heat-stable synthetic fibers, can maintain better performance.

Selection and Maintenance Guidelines

To ensure reliable performance in high-temperature settings, it is critical to select Acoustic Vents specifically rated for the target temperature range. Regular inspections are also essential—checking for signs of material degradation, seal failure, or structural deformation allows for timely repairs or replacements.

Avoiding direct exposure to extreme heat sources (such as near industrial heaters or direct sunlight through unshaded windows) can also extend the vent's service life and maintain its acoustic and ventilation capabilities.
