The 4 inch Vent Pipe Cap | VPC-4

The 4 inch Vent Pipe Cap is the perfect solution for covering any metal piping that may extend through the roof. These Caps protect any plumbing system from precipitation, debris and wildlife while allowing optimal air flow. They are engineered to ventilate flues, water heater systems and metal piping.

These Pipe Caps have an all-aluminum construction. In addition, the round design is aerodynamic to withstand wind speeds up to 200 mph. However, these are to be used exclusively to cover metal pipes. They should not be used to ventilate wood burning stoves or fireplaces because those applications require steel applications. If you are looking to cover PVC piping, our Aura PVC Pipe Caps come in an array of sizes.

Installation:

The VPC-4 is 4 inches in diameter and designed to fit over metal pipes of the same diameter. This allows for easy installation without damaging the roof. They are ideal for protecting any metal piping that may extend through the roof.

The 1/8 inch louvers are designed to prevent rain, snow, insects and animals from entering inside the vent.

These static vent pipe caps are available in an array of sizes. These sizes vary from 3 inches to 12 inches. We offer powder coating to match the color of any application. For help installing, please follow our installation instructions. For any questions, please e-mail us at [email protected] or give us a call at 1-800-ROOFVENT.

How it works:

Even the smallest breeze can create exhaust ventilation so that air is drawn out of the gravity vent. This movement of air is proportional to the wind speed and is measured in cubic feet per minute (CFM) In addition, the round design is aerodynamic to withstand wind speeds up to 200 mph. This is much more efficient compared to a typical wind turbine vent, which is open to the sky; Thus allowing rain and snow to get inside when it is not in motion.
