In a sport as competitive as tournament fishing, a tenth-of-an-ounce can mean the difference between cashing a check and going home empty handed. That is why New Pro Products developed the patented V-T2 Livewell Ventilation System; a unique, low-cost livewell modification that will simplify your fish care management by addressing all stressors that harm fish in the livewell and eliminate costly dead-fish penalties.
The New Pro Products V-T2 Livewell Ventilation System allows continuous oxygen to flow inside of your livewell and provides a release for heat and other metabolic gases, which can be harmful to fish. Incredibly easy to install, the V-T2 mounts flush to your livewell lid.
In addition, the V-T2 needs no electricity, so it won't tax your already-overloaded batteries. Universally adaptable to any livewell, the V-T2 is an easy and cost-effective way to ensure that your fish make it the scales in optimum condition.
Installation
To install the V-T2's, you will need a hand drill, a drill bit set, a Phillip's screw driver, a 5/16" wrench, a 3" Bi-Metal hole saw and a garbage bag to be placed in your livewell to catch the shavings from the cuts.
It is recommended to cut the holes in your livewell lid(s) as close to the middle or center of the livewell lid and directly over the water to provide optimum circulation. The can be placed a little forward, to the back, or to the sides as needed to meet your individual needs, but as much over the center of the water as possible. For livewells with two individual lids place one V-T2 in each lid.
For livewells with just one large lid, install both V-T2's in the lid and evenly space them out. Be careful to allow for needed clearance, so that the sleeve of the V-T2 will clear the livewell frame or any lid lift or locking mechanism. It is recommended to make the first few cuts or revolutions with the hole saw in reverse to cut the carpet, then place the drill in forward to cut through the lids. This will keep the carpet from threading out and make a clean cut. Place the V-T2's in the cut holes and use the VT-2 as your pattern for drilling the holes with a 9/64" drill bit. Attach the V-T2's with the provided marine fasteners. Tighten the nylon nuts by hand and do so slowly to prevent gallowing, which is a process that will cause the nut to meld and break the bolt.

Customer Reviews
Had no trouble with install. However, with Phoenix boats, there is no much room for error. I have not had time to fish tournaments since install. So I do not have any input with helping keep fish alive in the heat. TH Marine is an amazing company to order from. Very helpful and quick delivery!
Just got done installing this on my boat. I was having some trouble during tournaments with fish dying. I did some research and I was using all of the items that were recommended (Oxygenator and Gjuice) except these. Very easy to install and I showed my wife and she said if I didn't know they were not there before I would say they came with the boat.

I've had the V-T2 vents on every boat I've owned because their involvement to my fish care just flat out works, and this is what I mean.....A lot of boats these days have oxygenators or you can install after market air supplies to your live wells; and they all do their part to help the bass's longevity while in your boat. But their is another toxic chemical that many don't think of and don't see.......carbon dioxide build up! No matter what you do to help keep your catch alive, at some point they will die due to lack of good rich oxygen in the water and above the water. This build up occurs over the day as the sun shines down upon the boat, which we all love so much, or if the water temps are high, is created due to the lack there of. Think about this.....the next time you open your live well lids after you've added a couple of fish and they are full of water; see if you don't feel a little heat or bad odor coming up from inside....this is carbon dioxide! The V-T2 vents allow fresh oxygenated air to filter through your live wells keeping your water fresh and rejuvenated and it allows those bad toxic odors to be pushed out which in return helps add longevity to your catch through out the day. I know this from experience as I deep hooked a fish early one morning and it began bleeding. I left the hook in so I didn't do any more damage and I placed it in the live well with some treatment, I was sure this fish would die by the end of the day. I kept check on it all day and at weigh in, it was the liveliest fish in my bag and was returned to the water to live again. The V-T2 vent shield work! And no boat should be without them.
I’ve used in my last three boats must have to keep your fish healthy
