I would have liked to see how you connected the vent pipe to the vent from inside the attic. That is what I need to figure out how to do. The vent is already installed, but I don't see a way to connect the vent pipe. I did enjoy the video. Thanks for posting.

@JonnyDIY Год назад

I just slipped the vent pipe up into the vent and taped it. Then can use a couple short pieces of hanger strap and make sort of an L bracket and screw one side into the vent pipe and one up into the vent. Just be sure the screw into the vent isn't outside the covered part onto the flange 👍

@JonnyDIY Год назад

I ended up slipping it down under another course of shingles as shown later in video. I should have mentioned. It doesn't matter either way will work, but if you have the room to go another course I would. So slip under as many courses that will fit with still leaving the bottom edge exposed 👍

How did you attach the duct to the vent inside the attick? Thanks for the video

@JonnyDIY 2 года назад

The ducting has a crimped male end that slips and friction fits into the vent hole. Then I used the same foil ducting tape I used on seams and joints around the connection 👍

@CompTechMike 4 месяца назад

Great video! Do you have one for bathroom vent fans? Or a suggestion for a vent and interior/attic ducting for bathroom vents?

@JonnyDIY 4 месяца назад

Thanks I don't have one yet, I did recently, but haven't edited the video yet 😆 so for bathroom vents you can just use flexible ducting. If you live where it snows I suggest getting the insulated ducting to prevent condensation. For the roof vent I suggest using a T-top style, they have a much bigger mounting flange so they'll be more waterproof. My neighbor who's a roofer turned me onto them.

@JonnyDIY 2 года назад

Depends on a lot of things, if its a single story, where the ducting runs and passes through. Id call around for multiple bids if you can

@chasegeorge6021 2 года назад

Does the ductwork coming up to the vent attach to the vent in any way? I have a fan I want to install, but the vents that were put on the roof don't have a collar sticking into the attic to attach to. How would you attach the ductwork to prevent it from coming out of place?

@JonnyDIY 2 года назад

With flex line ducting usually you put a metal collar into the hole for the vent and you can cut a couple notches in it to make ears to attach to the roof. Then you attach the flexible ducting to that metal collar with a hose clamp

@chasegeorge6021 2 года назад

@@JonnyDIY I guess I should have also mentioned that the vent is 7in at it's widest (it narrows as it goes up) and I have 4in flexible ductwork from the fan. The trouble mostly stems from not having much of a way to attach a collar or the ductwork to anything. I got a sheet metal plate with a 4in hole that I'm going to put the collar in and attach from there. I'm going to have to attach it to the roof, but because the roof vent is already in place, I'm going to have to attach it to the inside of the attic.

@JonnyDIY Год назад

@@zxphilmz7980 yes you can use flexible accordion style ducting or insulated flex ducting (if live cold climate) for bathroom vents. You only have to use the stiff ducting like I used for the stove vent or other heated vents like water heaters etc

@stevenybarra4591 6 месяцев назад

If you have a metal roof and this were installed for roof ventilation would they work ?

@JonnyDIY 6 месяцев назад

Yes it would work. Also depending on the design of the metal roof you may be able to get vents that match up with the stamp pattern of the metal that will fit better though. Most metal roofs have ridge vents

@tillmansr2002 6 месяцев назад

Great video at 1:47 you draw a circle around the point. However isn’t the circle more of an oval when on a pitched roof? I’m thinking because the duct is at an angle and 7” some parts of the circle would be ‘ovalized’ in shape rather than a circle.

@JonnyDIY 6 месяцев назад

Yes you're right, with a steep pitch it would be more noticeable. For this type vent I just bought an adjustable angle elbow for the inside to match it up to the pitch of the roof. But in general the hole doesnt have to be really precise as long as it fits under the flashing. Many people just cut the holes in with a framing saw square shaped. And the small holes with a hole saw for like the vents for sinks, etc. But with the hole saw you can start it lined up perpendicular to roof and then as it start to cut in turn it so its level with ground

@BWeezy-sw1wy 2 месяца назад

I was gonna say I think that is why it got dark. You had to go get an elbow.

@sondon7103 11 месяцев назад

So far, so good! I installed this fan yesterday. ru-vid.comUgkx7yWIKcrbA9KMHkGSfcgxW2lsjHT6B8Sh I've been watching a continuous radon monitor in my house for about a week, and the levels have been running between 4.5 and 7.9 pCi/L. Shortly after I installed this fan, the radon level started dropping, and in less than 24 hours since I installed it, the level is now 1.9. My basement is approximately 2,000 square feet. Total home square footage above basement is approximately 4,000 square feet. The noise level so far is very quiet. Mine is installed indoors, so I had to purchase a cord and connector. If I have any problems later, I'll update my review. But for now, I'm very pleased with it.Update after 48 hours: Using a constant monitor, my radon is now fluctuating between 0.38 and 0.45 pCi/L. I've moved the monitor to my basement and am getting a constant 0.43 reading. After 24 hours, and when I know the weather will be safe, I'll place the monitor outside for about 12 hours. I'm thinking that the 0.38 to 0.45 may be the outside "ambient" radon level. I'm using this monitor (purchased from Amazon): Corentium Home Radon Detector by Airthings 223

@amandawalters9956 5 месяцев назад

I bought an old house, and I see there are vents on the roof. However, they are not opened up into the attic for anything to attach to. How do I locate these inside the attic so I can properly vent the bathrooms and microwave to the outside?

@JonnyDIY 5 месяцев назад

So if theyre just vents on roof with nothing attached to them inside the attic, theyre most likely just attic vents for venting the attic space to circulate air up there and prevent any sort of moisture and mold problems. If you're adding new exhaust vents to bathrooms and microwave you will need to add new roof top vents to connect the ducting from each of those to 👍

My roof vent faces south and when the winds blow wind comes right into the house through the range hood so I called an HAVC guy who installed (at a nominal cost) a damper that opens when I turn on the fan however, the winds still blow in an suck up the damper wings and which cause the fan blades to turn. Thought about installing a wing system over the front of the roof vent cover to deflect the winds from entering the cover … working on this .. any suggestions welcomed.

@JonnyDIY Год назад

I would say to have a motorized damper installed. That way it'll open when turned on and close when off. And itll stay closed and not blow open. That or maybe have a different style of roof vent installed, one where the its not directly facing wind. Not sure what kind you have but maybe get one like, heres a couple I found www.homedepot.com/p/Gibraltar-Building-Products-T-Top-7-in-Bonderized-Steel-Exhaust-Vent-Pipe-Flashing-RJ7B/202093182?source=shoppingads&locale=en-US&gclid=CjwKCAiA9NGfBhBvEiwAq5vSy5wY9YR6nmiDJwN9ybkh3XSymdVkEdyV5qKPf9sQ47SFs61gUDCB0xoCBc8QAvD_BwE www.homedepot.com/p/Master-Flow-6-in-Roof-Jack-with-Vent-Cap-RJVC6/100396961 And there's even round ones too that work well distributing air and keeping wind out

I just ran the vent pipe up into the hole of vent and used a couple pieces plumbing strap from pipe to vent and foil ducting tape. Could also run pipe up proud of roof a bit and cut a couple tabs in side of pipe and nail those to roof. Or they even make an adapter piece that fits in these style vents to fit it down into pipe like this one shown here ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-xQbmturspTg.html

Seems nobody else is adding range vents, they are all bathrooms, so I have a good general understanding now of what I’m gonna do when switching 2 baths and an over the oven fan from the soffit location to the roof. I’m wondering about my over the range microwave which has a built in 300cfm fan. I find conflicting info on duct diameter requirements. My neighbor says I have to use 8”, your video shows some sort of 7” and you mentioned it gets smaller somewhere, and a google search says 4” is fine up to 600cfm. I’m wondering what diameter is standard for a range hood or microwave. I have a low and high speed, both seem to lack performance. With the current 4” the fan sounds the same on high or low, like maybe there is too much back pressure. So I’m thinking maybe I should go with 8”.

@ironsharpensiron4580 Год назад
