Denray Posted December 13, 2012 Report Share Posted December 13, 2012 Don't remember seeing these before. Couldn't reach this side of the attic due to vaulted ceilings and truss work. Click to Enlarge 96.01 KB Click to Enlarge 60.69 KB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Katen Posted December 13, 2012 Report Share Posted December 13, 2012 Don't remember seeing these before. Couldn't reach this side of the attic due to vaulted ceilings and truss work. Click to Enlarge 96.01?KB Click to Enlarge 60.69?KB Looks like a basic, old fashioned vent jack. If there's no attic space in this area, they might have run an exhaust fan from a bathroom or kitchen to this spot. I have a vaulted ceiling above my kitchen and the range hood vents directly into a jack that's very much like that one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phillip Posted December 13, 2012 Report Share Posted December 13, 2012 On one inspection I found a furnace and water heater vented into a vent like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Denray Posted December 13, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 13, 2012 Duh. I could see the two bath fan vents going up in the attic. Those just didn't look like they could allow much air flow, but really, color me duh.[:-paperba Thanks guys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Erby Posted December 13, 2012 Report Share Posted December 13, 2012 Around here, they're used almost exclusively for bathroom vents. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
