Whats with the large open vent on top? No cover plate.

The large vent on top is just a blower. No cover plate is included in the box.

There is a solid top that slides on and a grate with bars above that. You could leave the solid plate out. I'm going to try that out myself.

Neither the original item nor the replacement item that I received had a glass lid and I returned them both for that reason and canceled the order from that vendor. I re-ordered from another Amazon vendor and that item did have a glass lid and it does have two vent holes.

It does not have a hole on the top just vents. The filter fits there and maybe you could put something else there to cover it like maybe some plastic cut to the size of the filter ?

I ordered one of these in October 2013. The top vent on mine is black, I would guess powdercoated steel.

Yes it is. There is a vent you have to open. If it is open I suggest contacting the seller.

yes, it is the heat diffuser plate. They work fine, but are a bit more efficient if vented. Thanks for reminding me, I need another one for my big grille...

Not sure I know exactly what you mean. There is no cover for the whole thing, like a plastic cover no. And there is no cover for the gridiron part either. But I love this grill. I live in a small villa and I can just wheel this out of my garage to my patio or front of garage to use. So glad I purchased this item!

The other answer is the only plate I know of, or you can mount it in the center an use two single hole as covers

There is a plate covering the screws. You pull off the plate, screw it in and replace the cover plate. Quite simple.

Traflet, I'm just another Fan-Tastic Vent Owner. I have nothing to do with Amazon or fantastic-vent except as an end user. Somehow Your question concerning replacing Your interior faceplate got sent to Me. Your query may have gotten lost in the process, best try again. Good Luck, Bill T.

Sorry. I replaced an old one, and there was a plate there already. It looks like a standard electrical hole and thread (like conduit), though.

to tell you the truth; I am not sure? I had a company install it for me and I see metal venting that they put in. Sorry

Yes, but it is open with no flap. I left my old inside plate on that has a flap.

There is no mesh vent on the cover that I received. It is solid so that it protects from the rain, snow, etc.

We brought our venting separately -- not included from Rinnai. Inorder to have it inspected, it has to be properly vented.
