LAMBRO ROOF CAPS
Roof caps, also commonly referred to as roof vents, serve as a tight-fitting HVAC component that covers the terminal of a ventilation system as it exits through the roof of a building. These vents are designed to cap vertically run ducting and protect it from dirt, debris, and animals, as well as prevent back drafting. To ensure a tight seal, it is essential to use caulking around the exterior opening of the roof cap.
Lambro offers a comprehensive range of roof caps for kitchen, dryer, and bathroom HVAC systems, each accompanied by detailed specifications and installation instructions. Some product pages include installation videos, as well, to make the process smoother. Lambro roof caps are available for consumers to purchase through a network of dealers, distributors, wholesalers, and retailers across the United States.

BATHROOM EXHAUST SYSTEM
Bathroom exhaust systems can vent through exterior walls or the roof. Roof caps are an effective option for a bathroom fan’s exhaust when you want to vent your bathroom through the roof. Bathroom fans should always be vented to the exterior of a home. It is required by code in many places.
Make sure your bathroom fans discharges to the outside, not into an attic. In much older homes you may find that the bathroom fan does vent into the attic. However, this practice has stopped because of the resulting damage that can occur. If you discharge moisture from the bathroom directly into your attic it can lead to significant issues including mold growth and wood deterioration, ultimately leading to structural decay. Moisture weakens the wood by slowly destroying individual wood fibers, layer by layer. Attic moisture can also destroy or retard the performance of an attic’s insulation. During the winter months in colder climates, the extra moisture from the bathroom vent will build up frost onto the bottom of the roof sheathing. This ice will eventually melt and start leaking onto the insulation plus the drywall ceiling.
