Additional Description: 

This medium sized Galvalume® roof cap has a plate (flange) size of 12” wide x 14” and the structure is 6” wide x 8” and about 9” high.  It has a 4.12 inch diameter collar that accepts typical residential dryer exhaust conduit.  Per building codes, there is no screen in this vent as it is exclusively designed for clothes dryers.  Unlike other roof vents, this vent features a unique lightweight damper that is curved which increases the efficiency dramatically.  The final opening is 65% larger than the round pipe portion.  By far, this is the most efficient roof vent on the market.  

For flat roof installs, we recommend a installing our DJK486U (curb style) over a raised curb.  See related items below.  

The collar penetrates the plate about 1.25 inches and is sealed to the plate with a silicone bead.  It will work on sloped roofs from 2/12 up to 12/12.  Note: Not recommended for use with high-profile roof tiles like "S", Spanish S as there is only 5 inches between the opening and the bottom plate.  Bird nest building within would be doubtful due to the slope and shape of the damper.  This vent is proudly made in the USA.

Galvalume: A patented alloy of barrier-resistant aluminum and corrosion-fighting zinc gives Galvalume its superior corrosion resistance. Most Galvalume substrates feature an alloy that is 55% aluminum, 43.5% zinc and 1.5% silicon. Tests have proven this alloy superior to the zinc-only coating used in regular Galvanized sheeting.  Additionally, it is Acrylic Coated, coating designation AZ-55. 

Complies with 2017 code M1502.3.1 (Exhaust termination passageway size). 

Professional installation is recommended.

DIY'ers, we recommend Polyurethane Roof and Flashing Sealant
