Abstract:
1. A method for assembling an appliance vent duct cover assembly, said method comprising: providing a first cover portion having a first cross-sectional profile; slidably coupling a second cover portion defining a plurality of openings to the first cover portion forming a vent duct cover defining an upstream end and a downstream end, the second cover portion having a second cross-sectional profile substantially similar to the first cross-sectional profile; and selectively positioning a first end portion of the second cover portion within the first cover portion such that a first end portion of the first cover portion substantially covers the second cover portion openings in a first orientation facilitating venting gases through the downstream end, and an opposing second end portion of the second cover portion within the first cover portion such that the second cover portion openings are substantially unobstructed in a second orientation facilitating venting the gases through the plurality of openings.
