Broan MD6TU 6" Universal Automatic Make-Up Air Damper With Pressure Sensor Kit
Designed to provide the best technology to equalize pressure between indoors and outdoors, while providing effective ventilation for a cleaner, healthier home. Eliminate gases, smoke or particulates generated from naturally vented combustion devices like a fireplace or water heater. Only Broan® offers such a complete and simple solution for automatic and controlled fresh air into the home every time you turn on the range hood! This is an interlocked, synchronized system that installs easily and requires only low voltage wiring to the sensor. Perfect for new construction or retrofit into an existing home.
Features
- BROAN® interlocked make-up air dampers provide outside air when required to keep the air in the home fresher by allowing the range hood to operate at optimum levels
- Universal design works with any BROAN® range hood to balance indoor air pressure by providing interlocked make-up air without requiring a direct wire connection between the range hood and the damper. Instead a sensor is attached to the exhaust duct to detect if the range hood is operating
- Slave dampers (MD6S, MD8S or MD10S) are interlocked to the main automatic or universal make-up air damper and open in unison for synchronized operation. They close, along with the main damper, as soon as the range hood is powered off. Slave dampers can be "ganged" together to provide a cost effective means to provide for higher volumes of make-up air
- Can be used to meet International Residential Code (IRC)-based requirements for make-up air
- Interlocked make-up air systems avoid wasted energy associated with barometric solutions and do not let unwanted air into the home during heating or cooling activities so air pressure is equalized for a well-balanced environment
- Fresh air wall caps are required for use with Make-Up Air Dampers

Frequently Asked Questions
-
The system uses an interlocked make-up air damper that provides outside air to maintain fresher indoor air by allowing the range hood to operate at optimal levels. It works by detecting when the range hood is operating and opening the damper to equalize pressure between indoors and outdoors, preventing negative pressure issues.
-
Yes, the universal design is compatible with any Broan range hood and installs easily using only low voltage wiring to the sensor. It can be retrofitted into existing homes or installed in new construction without requiring a direct wire connection between the damper and the range hood.
-
Yes, slave dampers such as MD6S, MD8S, or MD10S can be interlocked with the main damper and operate in unison, opening and closing together with the main unit. Multiple slave dampers can be ganged together to cost-effectively provide higher volumes of make-up air.
-
Interlocked make-up air systems help avoid wasted energy by preventing unwanted air infiltration during heating or cooling periods. Unlike barometric solutions, this system only opens to provide fresh air when the range hood is active, maintaining a well-balanced environment and reducing energy loss.
-
Fresh air wall caps are required for the proper use of make-up air dampers to allow for the intake of outside air. These caps must be installed to ensure the system functions as intended and maintains effective ventilation.
