What are Louvers?
Louvers are used to manage the flow of air in HVAC systems and protect from water infiltration. They are a kind of shutter or blade with horizontal slats, angled to allow light and air to pass through, but prevent the entry of water. The slats on louvers are stationary and do not move.
What are Dampers?
Dampers are also used to manage the flow of air in HVAC systems, but unlike louvers, the slats on dampers are mobile. The movement of these slats on dampers allows them to control the amount of air that passes through the system. Dampers are made of metal and come in a variety of shapes including squares, circles, and rectangles.
