You don't need to use your finger to add the sealant to the nail heads, it was just about to drip onto the roof so I caught it at the last second. Edit: Everyone saying the pipe isn't insulated should notice that this is a cathedral ceiling. None of this is in an attic. The pipe is contained in a 100% conditioned space and surrounded by insulation where it matters.

@@williamrichardson5854 It's not caulking, it's flash mate. It's considered a commercial roofing sealant and the packaging says asphalt and roof boots right on it. I do agree that there are some things that could be added to make it potentially better, but they would have required me to remove some shingles. I've installed 100s of roof boots using this process and haven't had any issues. I appreciate your recommendations though.

Great vid, but for one thing. don't use silicone on asphalt/fibreglass shingles. It eats the tar. Go back in a year and it will be stuck to the bottom of the upper shingle but the granules and a chunk of shingle where the silicone was will come up if you lift the shingle. In fact, p;ut some clear silicone on a shingle and go back in an hour an it'll be black with the leached tar. Instead, use an elastomeric /thermoplastic type sealant. Never use silicone on shingles. * roofer with 35+ years experience. I didn't know this for the first 15 years...

As a professional roofer for 13 years the only thing I would have suggested here is to add ice and water shield around the hole before the boot was installed and the around the top and sides of the boot to where the shingle row ends. This will ensure it never leaks around the booth or hole. I've been installing shingles to NRCA specs my entire career and for the last 3 years been exceeding them by adding my own based on regular customer call backs over the years. Since doing so my call backs have been reduced by over 75%. My suggestion above was one of our regular call backs leaks around boots. Good luck and all in all that was a clean install.

Nice job. I have a dryer vent on the roof and had to put a cage around it, because two separate times birds came in and made a huge nest in the vent. Now, just need to clean the cage from lint periodically, but way better than birds nest and bird poop! I don’t like going on the roof as much, so I made a detachable flange in the attic to disconnect the pipe, clean the vent, and put it back.

@Tool_Addicted_Carpenter
@Tool_Addicted_Carpenter Жыл бұрын
I usually install the fan where I want it, pipe it, and install the roof boot. I always have an electrician wire everything. Technically you should have an HVAC guy pipe it and a roofer boot it, but scheduling subs at the same time on the same day for a 30 minute procedure is not always easy and not very economical. If I do everything other than the electrical then it's much cheaper and you don't have 3 different people assuming responsibility if something goes wrong.

Globbing sealant doesn't necessarily increase effectiveness considering all the variables. I used ringshank stainless nails. If you've ever removed a ringshank nail then you know that the hold strength borders on screws. Most people would use a coated screw which doesn't compare to a stainless nails longevity. I know what you're saying though and I have used stainless screws for these. I'm well over 100 boots deep with no callbacks though, so that probably means something.

Spyder. I highly recommend them. I've used the same bit for a couple dozen roof boots and it's ready for dozens more. They claim it can be used for coring concrete but I doubt it. The only issue is that they have a proprietary bit so you're limited to the one that comes in the kit. They also recalled the gen 1 bit because high torque angle drills would twist them. For normal applications though, they're fast and awesome.

Do you get alot of leakage on snaplock where you are? Here in Western Canada, there's no point in sealing the snaplock seam unless it's for an hrv or hi velocity systems, etc. There's a much deeper pocket, making it harder to put together but a much tighter connection that won't twist or slide on you without screwing or taping the seam.

@Tool_Addicted_Carpenter
@Tool_Addicted_Carpenter 2 ай бұрын
@@costakleoni4033 Most fans go in the ceiling so the depth of the unit and 4" isn't usually an issue. If you're putting a vent unit in a 2x4 wall then you'll need a low profile vent fan with a 4" oval to 3" pipe adapter. Then you'll need to drill or cut out pretty much the entire top plate to get the 3" pipe through. You'll have to use your best judgement to determine if that's going to compromise too much of the structural integrity. I would say it's likely fine to do so in 90% of applications though. Roof rafters should be landing directly on top of the wall studs.

Check local codes but you can vent out of the wall. I would recommend going above your windows but you can also be a minimum of 4' below windows. The vent also needs to be above any flood/snow levels that would apply to your area. I would also say to consider being on a wall that doesn't get blasted too hard by wind, but that's just personal opinion.

Depending on the state they might allow a backflow valve on each bathroom. A valve would ensure that you're not just blowing air from one bathroom to the other. No matter what, it shouldn't be venting directly into an attic. A bathroom fan is generally extracting the moisture from a shower and relocating it out of the house to avoid mold.

Why no insulation on the hose?

Depends on the climate, I live way up north and always use insulated flex on fart fans, much more quiet as well.

You should have used an insulated pipe to prevent condensation on the outside of the pipe when it is in an unconditioned space.

It was a cathedral so the pipe is surrounded by insulation.

How much do you think a job like this would cost to have someone do?
@Tool_Addicted_Carpenter
@Tool_Addicted_Carpenter 9 ай бұрын
(copy and pasted) It can vary quite a bit. The vent fans themselves usually cost between $100-300. Some are just fans, some are fan/light combos, and some are fan/light/heat combos. The pieces of 4" hard vent pipe are ~$15 for a 5', and the elbows are ~$7ea(some people use flexible duct but that's not up to code). So a few pieces of vent pipe at $15ea and some elbows at $7ea adds up quickly. A good quality roof boot is $40-50. Vent tape is ~$10 per roll, a good tube of flashing sealant costs ~$10, and some screws are ~$5. So materials can be as low as $200 or as much as $500+. As far as labor, I usually charge $400-500 per roof penetration. It's a risky thing to undertake drilling 4 1/4" holes in a roof and trusting they'll never leak. You can't trust just anybody to do that. Another major variable would be if it's new construction or old construction. In new construction everything is exposed and you're able to work freely. Old construction you'll need to cut out ceilings and maybe walls well as move insulation. That alone could add $1000 between patching and paint. There's also the wiring factor. If it's not wired then you'll need to get an electrician involved which could easily be $1,000+, especially if it's a light/fan/heat combo, because that would usually require a new run all the way to the panel. The tools required for these jobs can be over $1000 between drills, holesaw, ladders, bars, etc. When pricing jobs I also add 20% business expenses. That covers gas, wasted time, insurance, etc. So I'd say someone is looking at between $800-$3,000 on average. It sounds expensive but you're paying for a professional to show up with all of the right tools and trusting them with creating major vulnerability in a roof that will never leak.

Use screws on your connections. And a squeegee on the foil tape. Or be a professional and use duct seal on all the joints. You don’t have to hard pipe it either. You can run flex if you want. Although if you run it in an unconditioned space it ought to be insulated.

l I know you’re not gonna like thisBut sometimes we just run it up into the attic especially if there’s good ventilation in the attic but I live in Virginia I don’t know the codes may be different it may be a lot colder where are you are we hardly have winter any more here where I live in Virginia

Yikes. I would say heat actually makes it worse because of the humidity. Most things are over-engineered but I'd be surprised if any code allowed venting into the attic. I've ran into it countless times with no issues though. Insulation wasn't soaked.
