PVC Termination Cap Mesh Screen Vent Cover, Furnace & Roof Vent Cap, Stainless Steel Wire Round Exhaust Pipe Cover End 2" Inner & 2-3/8" Outer Diameter

I purchased to cover my radon pipe as bats twice had found there way in and got killed by the fan. Luckily neither broke the fan as they are pricey. Plus, it was sad finding out that bats were getting stuck and dying. The piece fits well in the joint piece. This was easy solution and provided peace of mind.

These vent covers fit over the female end of my 3" vent pipes outdoors. They slid on firmly with friction no tools required. If the pipes need maintenance a light twist and they slide right off. So to clarify, these pvc mesh caps have an ID of 4" . The OD of the coupling end of my 3" pvc pipe was 4" so they fit nice and snugly and are held on by friction no tape,clamp or gluing was needed in my application. Very well made (Taiwan) strong stainless mesh which is fine enough to stop leaves etc but not too fine, so it can't get easily clogged.Great product!

Perfect fit and ideally suited to prevent rodents from entering the exhaust pipes from the furnace and hot water heater.

It fits into a schedule 40 pvc coupling. We doped it up and shoved it in. I recommend for outside vent terminations. Good value!

I am using NDS sewer & drain 4" PVC pipe for ERV ducting. This is not SCH40 pipe but thinner wall sewer & drain pipe and fittings. This 4" screen fits inside an NDS hub by using a heat gun to soften the hub. It is not easy and it took me about an hour to achieve but it has worked out very neatly in the end, see photo. Once the hub is very warm / too hot to touch, I forced the screen (which has a solid pvc collar) into the hub perpendicularly to expand the hub while rotating it to expand the hub evenly all around. Repeating the heat and expand procedure many times eventually allows the screen into the hub. Once it is slightly inside evenly all around, it is much easier to continue heating and press it in all the way.This long turn elbow will be pointing downwards on the fresh air intake. I will not glue the elbow to the pipe so that the elbow can be easily removed for cleaning. I can reach the inside side of the screen through the removed elbow. Therefore it's fine that the screen is now stuck permanently in the hub just through friction with the warmed pvc.I have bought several of these screens in the past for air intakes and very happy with their quality and longevity. I point them down on air intakes where I can easily see and vacuum them every now and again. No screen on exhaust provided exhaust is in regular daily use to expel the bugs. In my case the ERV will be on 24x7.If PVC is in direct sunlight it needs to be painted to protect from UV.I don't know if the 3" size fits inside a 3" NDS hub but it's worth a shot.

Appears to be good quality. Fit perfectly into a 3" PVC elbow, and is easy enough to remove and reinsert if needed. Used this to provide a block against wildlife for a high efficiency furnace vent intake and exhaust.

Good product perfect fit works as intended. I would highly recommend

Had to update my dryer hot air exhaust run. From a windowless basement, going up the wall and across the 2nd story crawl space. Last jerry-rigged solution slipped off the round metal duct and allowed a bullfrog or two to move in and cause problems. This solution is working. The sequence consists of a large hole cement block, a 4" PVC conduit pipe coupler jammed inside it, the aluminum round duct stuck into the coupler and this PVC stainless mesh cap inserted into the other end (terminal) of the coupler. Added a string to be able to pull it out. It is actually a 4 inch OD.
