Field Controls SK-5 5" Star-Kap Aluminum Vent Cap

The Field Controls SK-5 Star-Kap is a 5-inch aluminum vent cap engineered to prevent downdrafts and assist in the proper ventilation of gas or oil-fired heating equipment. This professional-grade vent cap features a unique corrugated design that helps draw off and exhaust waste gases regardless of wind direction, protecting your home from potentially dangerous backdrafts.

Key Features:

• Unique Star-Kap design prevents downdrafts caused by wind gusts
• Durable aluminum construction for long-lasting performance
• Fits standard 5-inch diameter vent pipes
• Keeps birds and debris out of the vent stack
• Suitable for venting gas or oil-fired boilers, furnaces, and water heaters
• Does not require the standard two-foot height clearance when used on detached or lean-to buildings housing heating equipment
• CSA (US) and ETL (Canada and US) approved

The corrugated ridge design creates a venturi effect that actively assists venting performance while preventing wind-driven downdrafts from pushing dangerous gases back into the building. This vent cap measures approximately 8-1/4 inches wide by 8-3/8 inches high overall and is designed for simple installation on existing vent stacks.
