Hi all,
Working on finishing up a new metal roof and trying to determine main vent location. Previously the vent exited about 2/3rds of the way up the roof. Is there anything preventing me from moving this further towards the peak?
My thought is to exit directly below ridge cap as the top edge of the pipe boot could then be under the ridge cap and somewhat shielded. It would also decrease potential snow mass on the pipe. Is this considered too close to an opening due to vented ridge?
Thanks!
