A modular air vent assembly kit can be used to cover duct openings that supply a flow of heated or cooled air to a room in addition to covering duct openings that receive return air from a room. The modular air vent assembly kit is comprised of a base, a damper mechanism, and two different faceplates where the damper mechanism can be selectively assembled into the base depending on whether control through the air vent by operation of a damper is needed in the particular duct opening and where either of the two faceplates may be selectively connected with the base where one faceplate has a lattice and is used in combination with the damping mechanism and the other faceplate has a series of louvers and is used when the damping mechanism is not used in the vent assembly.

[ What is claimed:] [1.]1. An air vent assembly kit for covering an air duct opening, the air vent assembly kit comprising:a base that is dimensioned to be inserted into an air duct opening;a damper mechanism that can be selectively connected to the base for movement of the damper mechanism between an opened position and a closed position relative to the base;a first faceplate that is selectively connectable to the base, a second faceplate that is selectively connectable to the base, the first faceplate and the second faceplate are interchangeable, the first faceplate is connectable to the base when the second faceplate is not connected to the base and the second faceplate is connectable to the base when the first faceplate is not connected to the base; andthe first faceplate has a first connector that selectively connects the first faceplate to the base and the second faceplate has a second connector that selectively connects the second faceplate to the base, and the first connector is different from the second connector.
