DuraVent 4" PelletVent Pro Adjustable Roof Flashing

DuraVent 4" PelletVent Pro Adjustable Roof Flashing 4PVL-F is specifically designed to weatherproof the penetration of a vent pipe through the roof. It is crucial to use a storm collar in conjunction with this product to provide an additional layer of protection against water ingress. When selecting the roof flashing, it is important to choose the appropriate one based on the pitch of the roof. For roof pitches ranging from 0/12 to 6/12, a specific type of roof flashing should be used. However, for steep roof pitches, it is recommended to refer to the Gas Vent catalog for suitable options.

This product is constructed from galvalume, which is a durable and corrosion-resistant material. It offers long-lasting performance and ensures the integrity of the venting system even under harsh weather conditions. By effectively sealing the penetration point and utilizing the appropriate storm collar and roof flashing, this product provides reliable weatherproofing for the vent pipe and contributes to the overall protection of the roof structure.
