- Two Clamps: Clamps are used to securely fasten vent connections, preventing leaks and maintaining stability in the venting system.
- Square Termination: A vent cap with a square design that sits at the end of the vent system. It directs exhaust gases outside, protects the vent from weather and debris, and ensures proper draft and airflow.
SFVTxx- Vertical Vent Kit

- Roof Support Collar Assembly: This component supports the vent pipe at the roofline, providing structural stability. It holds the vent securely in place, preventing movement and maintaining the proper alignment of the venting system.
- Roof Flashing: A waterproof barrier that seals around the vent pipe where it passes through the roof. It prevents water leaks and protects the roof and vent system from weather elements.
- Storm Collar: A metal ring installed above the roof flashing on the vent pipe. It diverts water away from the flashing to prevent leaks, enhancing the waterproofing of the vent system.
