I’ve been using a regular roof vent with an Exhaust Vent Adapter made by Lamanco to vent bathroom fans.
I started doing it this way because a Property Manager that I work for did not want a regular bathroom fan vent with a damper. He said they had problems with that type freezing shut in the winter.
This adapter I’ve been using has a damper but it’s located inside the attic.
I’m currently paying 11.6 for a 750 vent and 5.75 for the adapter.
I’m thinking about switching to a vent that has the flange built into it. What kind do you recommend?
Since that photo was taken I’ve changed the way we secure the pipe to the flange, we now use a metal pipe clamp that you tighten with a screw driver.
You have probably seen vent pipes that have come loose, so I figured I had better come up with a way to make it doesn’t happen.
