Answer This Question

A:  Look for tapcon masonry screws or any kind of concrete screw to use on your brick. They come in various lengths but you would need to determine what type of brick / stone you have and the depth required in order to purchase the appropriate length. A store associate will be able to guide you to the correct area in the bay.

                A:  Hello and thank you for your question regarding our Everbilt Pest Barricade For Vent Cap. To fascine this product to vinyl siding make sure and use galvanized steel screws. We recommend a #8 screw that is 1 in. in length for proper grab. Make sure to caulk around the outside of the product frame to ensure a good seal to the vinyl siding and to give it more rigidity.

                        Answer This Question

                        A:  I would go with the professional recommendation from Dryer Venting Educators to be safe.

                        by|Jan 12, 2023

                          A:  I don't see why you couldn't use it as long as it fits over your existing vent. Your furnace is high efficient and shouldn't blow that hot to harm this cover. It's well made with plenty of venting and keeps the birds from wanting to nest in the vent.

                          by|Jan 12, 2023

                            A:  Hello and thank you for your question in regards to our Everbilt Pest Barricade For Vent Cap. We do not recommend using this type of product over a high efficiency furnace vent as the constant high heat that high efficiency furnaces create can possible start to slowly melt it over time. The recommended type of protection for your vent (for a high efficiency furnace) is a metal screen adaptor.
