WALL CAPS for a BATHROOM EXHAUST SYSTEM
Bathroom wall mounted or ceiling mounted exhaust fans play a crucial role in maintaining the overall health and hygiene of a home. By removing excess moisture and unpleasant odors from the bathroom, these fans prevent the growth of mold and mildew, which can cause serious health problems. They also help preserve the integrity of the bathroom’s interior by protecting drywall, wallpaper, window coverings, and cabinetry from damage due to excessive moisture.
There are several options available for bathroom exhaust fan installations, each with its own set of benefits and drawbacks. The most common option is to vent the fan to an exterior wall. This is a straightforward and effective solution that can be easily installed in most homes. The second most popular option is roof vent installation, which can provide better ventilation performance, but is more complex and requires a higher degree of technical skill to install. Do not vent into the attic area since the moisture can cause major mold issues and structural damage.
Finally, there is the option of venting the fan to the soffit, the underside of a roof’s overhang. This option is less commonly used, as not all municipalities allow it. Before opting for this solution, it is important to check with your local building code to ensure that it is allowed in your area. However, if you are able to use this option, it can provide a more discreet and aesthetically pleasing installation. Regardless of the option you choose, it is important to have a proper ventilation system in place to ensure the health and well-being of your home and its occupants.
Most of Lambro’s bathroom venting products work well for either a wall or ceiling bathroom fan installation. Available in white, grey, and brown plastic or aluminum, these wall exhaust vents fit ducts with diameters of 3”, 4”, 5” and 6”.

Bathroom Wall Cap Vent Kits w/ Parts
Bathroom Wall Cap Vent Kits
Unlike dryer ducts, bathroom duct kits can have either a ridged or smooth interior, as metal, plastic, and aluminum flex ducts are permitted for bathroom venting. Smooth surfaces are not required for bathroom ducts because bathroom fans do not exhaust flammable lint, and the temperatures passing through the duct are much lower than those for dryers, making potential obstructions less dangerous. However, pooling of condensation is a concern.
In contrast to dryer ducts, there are no explicit length and diameter requirements in the International Residential Code (IRC) for bathroom vents. It is worth noting that clothes dryer ducts can be used for a bathroom/shower fan’s exhaust duct, but not necessarily vice versa.
Typical kit features include:
· Opening/closing damper prevents outside elements from entering the vent
· Removable screen
· UV inhibitor used to help prevent the premature fading of outside exhaust vent
· Include either hood or cap vents or louvered vents with tail pipe, a trim plate and some type of clamp

WALL CAPS for a DRYER EXHAUST SYSTEM
A dryer vent system plays an important role in keeping a home safe from fire hazards.
Removing moist air allows the dryer to recirculate dryer air into the clothes dryer which will substantially reduce dryer times and help decrease electricity usage.
In order to ensure that your dryer vent is properly installed and up to code, there are a few guidelines you should follow.
First, check your local dryer vent codes. These will vary depending on where you live, but there are some general standards that most jurisdictions follow. Make sure that your dryer vent meets or exceeds these requirements.
Be sure to follow the installation instructions carefully to ensure proper ventilation and avoid issues down the road.
The most efficient way to vent your dryer is through the wall to the outside. A wall cap should be fitted at the termination of the ducts, not only for a nice finished look from the outside, but also to prevent dirt, birds and other critters from entering the duct. Lambro offers a number of different kits for clothes dryer venting installations.
Lambro dryer vents are available in aluminum and white or brown plastic. Our wall caps will fit ducts with diameters of 4”, a standard duct size for dryers.
