And not a drop of water came through. View this testimonial below coming all the way from the British West Indies during the aftermath of Hurricane Ike:
Feedback From British West Indies
Damage Due to Hurricane Winds – but Not with Our Roof Vents!
"Just a short note to tell you how impressed we are with this vent. During hurricane Ike (we are in the Turks and Caicos Islands), the wind was gusting to 135 mph with driving rain. I went out the next day to mop up the garage where the vent (an AV-10-C2) was installed. To my surprise, not one drop of water came through the vent!! A great product." – Mike
PS. I did replace the metal sheet metal screws with stainless steel screws as we are on the ocean and only stainless last over 6 months – an option that you could consider.
