Even if you have beautiful flooring, the overall visual effect can be diminished by ugly floor vents. These vents are necessary for heating your home, but knowing this fact doesn’t make it easier to deal with their plain or unsightly appearance. If you are looking for ways to improve the appearance of your floor vents, you can turn to our team at Ventizmo for help. We make custom vent covers in a wide variety of woods and patterns. In this article, we will provide a few suggestions on how to make your floor vents look better.
- Use Better Materials – One way to improve the appearance of your floor vents is to swap your default vent covers with covers made of different materials. For example, you can replace a plain grey metal cover with one made of brass or other decorative metals. Alternatively, you can replace a metal cover with one made of the same wood as the surrounding floor—that way, the cover will blend into the hardwood floor instead of interrupting it.
- Use More Interesting Patterns – The other main way to make your floor vents look better is to replace your plain, utilitarian covers with options designed with style in mind. For example, our wood vent covers feature decorative cutout patterns, such as honeycomb, waves, etc., instead of standard vertical grilles. Using decorative vent covers is a great way to add some subtle visual interest to your floors. The detail in our covers is not loud enough to stand out, but it is interesting enough to reward those who glance at them.
