Looks good, but the vent flashing should have went under the second row of shingles as well. Better to have more covered and less exposed.

Excellent! Getting ready to do mine this weekend. Loved seeing the tube roll off the roof and bending the nail! That’s the real stuff right there! And we’ve all been there.

Didn't anyone else notice that the dog never barked again after the tube rolled off the roof...lol, thanks for sharing your experience.I'll be doing mine soon, the reason I'm watching.

I felt that when the tube rolled off the roof. Good restraint on the language. LOL

THANK YOU! Just did mine for a microwave exhaust. Watched your video a few times and did it in about 30 minutes. I was lucky mine was close enough to the edge of the roof that I was able to do it standing on my ladder. For anyone reading this and thinking about tackling this project, I used all rigid 6" ductwork. No flexible stuff. It's not only highly recommended to only use rigid, but also code in most states. Do it during warm weather. If it's cold out, you're gonna have a hard time with the shingles. Also, when choosing between 6" and 4" ductwork, check your fan exhaust capacity. Thanks again for posting this video. Very helpful!

Thank you Sir on a job well done. I love to see videos when people know what they are doing. Keep the good work.

Roofers use a large piece of foam to kneel on and to keep tools/materials from sliding down the roof. Usually it’s old couch cushion foam, try it out

That's the videos i like watching cuz they really show how to do the work instead of just talk and talk... well done 👏

Nice of you to feature the safety harness. I wonder: Was the ladder damaging the shingles at the edge of the roof? Maybe your ladder needs a standoff.

This work should be reconsidered

Nice kitchen, and attic space!

I like the video and work you did. Im buying an over range microwave and want vented out like that too. So many steps and alot of work! Im first getting an electrician to hook up a seperate outlet in cabinet and its own breaker for the fan. Do I then hire an HVAC or Roofer or both to do rest?

Great video and thanks for sharing

Used a roofing harness! Wonderful!! First time I have seen it in hundreds of roof videos. Most common roof fall is forgetting where the edge is and simply walking off the roof. $100 harness kit saves $KK of med bills and pain. Seen it. Ugly.

sorry did not show much footage of that but in the beginning of the video you see some of it. It's all straight 6in pipe from the ceiling drywall then have a slight elbow (theyre adjustable) then another straight section going directly to the vent. Just used flashing/roofing tape to attach everything together.

What part do you need if your roof jack doesn't have a collar? You just have a 6" coming out of the roof for example.

Could you use the same vent cap on a tiled roof? My roof is sloped but it’s flat tiles instead of shingles

Great vid thanks.

I missed the part where the roof vent attaches to the ductwork. Do you go down to the attic or kitchen and feed it up to the vent? Did you even connect it?

A friend of ours fell off the roof and died. A harness would have changed history. We used to run hexagonal head sheet metal screws into the lugs on our boots. I know, hard on shingles, but be careful on them, and save your life and/or wellbeing.

Did you get back the fallen caulk tube using the force like Luke in the Wampa cave getting his lightsaber?

I was gonna say this video is fake until I saw the tube roll off and all the roofing tar everywhere. Then, I knew for sure it was a real roof mod.

That was a really nice circle from cuting it with a saw za

So everyone is aware, what this guy did is not totally correct. I'm not putting him down or criticizing just pointing a few critical flaws. The pipe should be fastened inside the attic due to potential fire. When the vent needs to be cleaned the pipe could come loose letting the smoke vent inside the attic. The pipe should be directly connected to the vent then all seams should have foil tape around them. The pipe should have gone directly through the roof about an inch, 2 tab cuts made on opposite sides of the pipe then nail down the tabs to ensure the pipe is stable at the top or wrap a band around the pipe and nail the ban down, then crimp the pipe or the vent wont fit over the band. The vent should have ice shield underneath the vent 6"-1foot all the way around. If the pipe is secured to the vent caulk underneath the vent is unnecessary because he stuck the vent to paper. You should use roofing tar at room temperature, if the tar is too hot a big mess will be made. The tar goes on top of the vent but under the shingles. If you put a nail through metal 100% guaranteed that nail will leak. By using the roofing tar you create a very good seal with the nail and the metal and at the same time the shingles will have a very good seal to each other and the vent. Any nails that will be exposed should have a rubber washer then caulked over with culk that suits your area.

Oh my just so you know the sealant you used it will give up in couple of months and then you will get water in the house just because you cut 2 rows and you stuck the vent under just one row. Both rows should've go over the vent for better weather proofing and Always when you install a vent take your time pull out the shingles and use ice and water to seal around not caulking because its kinda useless. Appreciate your time posting this but i fix them everyday!

Can you elaborate on the ice and water? Also the two rows vs one row. I'm still learning, thanks

@Banana-handyman88

@@johnhammond2155 yes search on google for ice and water shield. Get an idea how to cover a vent with this ice and water shield and instead of using the caulking sealant which is a mess its easier to use the ice and water, plus it will last as long as the roof life. Caulking tends to give up especially getting hit by the sun everyday it will sooner or later give up and wake up with water in your house. So always take couple shingles or rows out to expose the area you have to work on. Lets say for the vent you have you need to take out at least 3 rows. Then cut your vent hole and remember your bottom shingle has to be covered a bit by the bottom of your vent that you are installing. So once the vent hole is cut and vent placed on his spot you nail the 4 corners and after you come and cover it around with ice and water shield. Obviously you have to trim it around. Then once this step is done you have to place the 3 rows you took off back on and again trim them around. And now you dont have any nails exposed and no caulking needed and you can sleep good at night by knowing you dont have to worry until the next roof change. I hope you understand my story if not i will post a video and probably tag you somehow if not keep an eye on my chanel i will post a video how its done.

@@danielangeles86 OK fair. I did not know you were trained for that. Most people with no training would possibly put themselves in trouble. Let me explain: I have mountaineering and antenna tower climbing experience going back several decades. What I have observed is that people with no training 1) use harnesses as an excuse to be less vigilant to the point of putting themselves more in danger than necessary 2) they in fact stumble over the ropes and fall often, sometimes due to fatigue due to having to constantly relocating it. This roof looks easy enough that either one is unlikely. Just one more question, won't the screws used to fix the attachment create water entry points on a roof like this?
