Gap between facade and air outlet from FLVP?

[Andreas-sa]

There is a gap at the top between the facade and the outlet which is for FLVP. Should it be like this or have the carpenters cut too large a hole? Water must be leaking in there, I think?

Yes, it looks like the hole through the facade is too big. Unscrew the hood and see how it looks behind. Maybe just an adjustment of the pipe's position is needed?

 

[BSOD]

Certainly looks like someone made a wrong cut...

I would probably have removed the outlet and tried to patch together a piece of wood of suitable size so that it looks a bit better, not an open hole in the facade.

Painting over it can probably make it quite good.

Is it a Smålandsvillan?
It looks like that for all the neighbors who have built a Smålandsvillan in our relatively new area.

The flashing likely goes up behind the panel to prevent it from running backward.

 

[Andreas-sa]

Yes, it is a smålandsvillan and the house is almost 3 years old.

I took a closer look with the ladder and see that it's a metal flashing that goes in with edges, so the hole is probably supposed to be there. Then I can probably fall back asleep.
