Attic Pipe Seal

Often while performing dryer vent inspections we come across roof terminations covered with wire to keep rodents from entering the attic space. Unfortunately this is a fire hazard and against Florida building code.. 

Most dryer vents will have a larger hole in the roof where the pipe fits into the roof termination. This allows for lint blowback into the attic space as well as an access for rodents . To seal this area off we use metal sheeting and metal tape. This stops the lint blowback and will not allow rodents to enter the attic space.
