Abstract: A method of and apparatus for controlling air flow through the medium of a circular frame structure upon which is pivotally mounted a plurality of shutters, the frame being adapted to be secured to a ceiling of a room or space in which ceiling an opening has been cut to accommodate air flow and movement of the pivotally mounted shutters. The circular frame structure and shutter assemblage is substantially flush with the plane of the ceiling and a housing and ventilating fan is disposed in an attic or space above the opening in the ceiling. The ventilating fan above the shutters is rotated in a direction to draw air from the room upwardly into the attic space for dissipation through conventional air vents located in the roof or wall region of an attic space.
