How to open & install a baseboard vent

The video shows you how to open and take off a baseboard vent cover as well as how to install it.

I used an Everbuilt baseboard vent from Home Depot.

I have an older version maybe 15 to 20 years old; works different. Looks similar. For mine, the diffuser baseboard vent lever must be open and down, NOT closed and up. Then, press down on the baseboard lever while pulling the front face panel forward toward you at the same time.

Thank you for this. Had the exact same model from Home Depot. Couldn't figure out for the life of me how to open this freaking thing

My instructions from Lowe’s with reliable said to reach up in there and just pull it out. I’ve cut my fingers twice trying that then watch your video and it came right apart but mine does not come with screws. I got ripped off I subscribed just because you’re the only person I know that figured this out.

Thank you so much. I have the same vents. I think I can install these.

[bobloblaw]

Thanks! I was wondering why I only had 2 screws and 4 holes for this thing.

I just ripped up carpet and had to remove these baseboard vent covers. Im wondering if i should screw the new ones back down the plywood before the new carpet is installed or after?

[jjdubs]

Thanks, cuz I didn’t have a clue as to how to separate the two pieces.

Sadly i have a different type of defuser. The lever is connected to the back and is on the right side when looking at it. This one take the cover off the lever and push up on the front case. at times I had to use flatheads to get under and prop up. Dunno if there is an easier way for these ones but were still a pain.
