WickRight Low-Slope Roof Vent

Description

WickRight Low-Slope Roof Vent exhausts moisture vapor and eliminates condensation build-up in roof systems.

Patented Low-Slope Roof Vent exhausts heat from under the roof membrane and beneath the plywood roof deck and interstitial roof space. This eliminates condensation build-up, which significantly extends the life of roof membranes, plywood sheathing and insulation. Low-Slope Roof Vent also provides an interior rain screen for walls, allows moisture vapor to exit and separates the roof space from the masonry to keep it dry.

Low-Slope Roof Vent works in conjunction with WickRight Vented Receiver Clip or WickRight Metal Coping Vent (which are installed on top of the parapet) to maintain/restore health to masonry walls and low-slope roof systems. We highly recommend combining parapet and roof passive ventilation systems to gain significant drying effect for buildings.

Low-Slope Roof Vent can be installed with or without parapet ventilation devices. Installing our Roof Vent plastic extension (add to your order for an additional $25 per 100 ft) beyond the roof system, down to the drywall if possible, will provide maximum drying to the wall and roof system, and beyond any through-wall flashings.

WickRight Low-Slope Roof Vent is a high performance building material.

Installation Info:

Install vertically against parapet wall at the junction of wall and roof deck on low-slope roof buildings.

Modified Bitumen can be torched directly to the 1/2″ Polyiso Coverboard side of WickRight Low-Slope Roof Vent.

No primer needed

No roof termination bar is needed

Low-Slope Roof Vent can also be installed against Mechanical and Stairwell buildings to maximize passive ventilation of the entire roof system.

Required:

WickRight Offset Counter Flashing or WickRight Double Caulk Pocket 3-Piece Counter Flashing system

WickRight Vented Bug Screen

Counter Flashing and Bug Screen must be installed above Low-Slope Vent to protect the exhaust portals from rain and insects. Counter Flashing slips into the Vented Receiver Clip, simply slide bug screen behind the counter flashing and fasten through the counter flashing into the parapet wall.

Installation training available, call 312-720-1467 for details.

Ordering Considerations:

Decide if installing with Capstone Vented Receiver Clip, Metal Coping Vent or if installing without additional WickRight Passive Ventilation

Decide on Height of Roof Termination/height of Low-Slope Roof Vent to be ordered – 12″, 16″ or 48″ (or somewhere in between). WickRight can cut custom sizes or Low-Slope Roof Vent can be cut in the field.

Measure interior side of parapet wall. Order length plus 10% for corners and to ensure you have enough product on site.
