Have you had any issues with your collapsable ladder? I was eager to buy one after seeing this video but there were several people who posted on Amazon that their ladders had collapsed on them due to the plastic rings breaking and they fell to the ground or got stuck on their roofs.

Absolutely love your videos but this vent is absolute garbage if you live where there's snow. It creates so much ice on your roof because the air coming out doesn't have a chance to properly evacuate so it creates condensation and melts the snow on the roof nearby the exhaust. You'd be surprised of how big an area it melts. I ended using longer pipe and going to gable end since I have a bungalow. Your explanation was bang on and perfect. How long ago were those shingles installed because you had no problems getting under them. When I installed that vent, my shingles (Owens Corning Duration) were 5 years old and I had a bitch of a time to get under them and I did it in the summer. In the spring I want to go and take that vent out since I'm now going thru gable end and I hate the thought of it.

No. It should be fine. Any drops that do blow in during wind driven precipitation will dry out when the fan turns on. I’ve seen if it’s really bad roofers will install a flashing in front of the vent to redirect the rain.

Duct tape is useless in the attic unless you want it to fail in less than a year. Better practice is to attach rigid ducting to that metal collar from inside the attic. Connect with sheet metal screws and seal with mastic and tape. If you can run rigid all the way to the fan that's the best. Also, if you don't seal the joint where the metal vent pipe twists into the fan hood moisture will leak out and get between the vent hood flanges and the roof and will wet the plywood. This will cause rot and mold.
@clownchkn
@clownchkn Жыл бұрын
Thanks for writing this. yeah 11 months after reply, but I just watched this video. I believe this kit comes with a foam sealer for that joint. Also, from reading, that metal tape is the proper tape to use as regular duct tape rots and falls apart?
@percyfaith11
@percyfaith11 Жыл бұрын
@@clownchkn Yes, in the heat of the attic the glue on the tape dries up and turns to powder and the tape starts to leak. Good quality aluminum tape meant for sealing ducts is what is needed. A pail of mastic and a disposable paint brush will be cheaper for doing long seams. They both have their place.

A builder installed pvc pipe but ran it down to an elbow, turned 90° and ran it 18’. It filled with moisture at the elbow. It froze and built up till it cracked the pvc. Some inspectors either do t know what they are doing and shouldn’t or they get paid off. Lots of shoddy work in construction.

You do it the same way you would with one layer. You only tuck it under the first layer. The only difference is you need to cut through the second layer to cut the deck and to get the pipe through. Cut the second layer before you cut the decking or it will give up your blade.

Just to ask this??? That looks like a three inch vent pipe. So If i were doing this install I would use a three inch hole saw instead of you using a reciprocating saw. You get a lot better looking opening. Here I thought you always want to do a good job???? Here in cutting this opening you failed!!!

I liked your video and I'm going to use all of your tips but removing all of those nails and work it from outside to make it only easier and not better, no reason to take those nails out and then hammer tons of nails down, that is compromising the integrity of the roof for sure, 2 minutes being in the dark hot attic (take a portable light with you!) worth it not to take all of those nails of and nail more back in and glue and patch, not a great idea at all.
