Many homes have at least three 1.5 to 3-inch PVC plumbing, furnace, radon, or any other vent pipes on their rooftops that are exposed to the elements. Pipey is one of those PVC vent pipes. His job is to safely release harmful gases and exhaust from your furnace, sewer, and radonlines. When He's doing his job, you're happy and healthy.

But He has a Real Problem

Squirrels, birds, and other small animals like him – a lot. They bring nesting materials, nuts, and other debris and drop it down into your sewer or furnace system through his open top. Even if the animals leave him alone, the wind and rain don’t; any storm that comes his way drops rain, leaves, sticks,e-cap_twig_2 and all kinds of other debris down into your home.

You probably won’t notice him until you have a problem. Once debris gets down into your home’s pipes and you have to call a Plumber or HVAC Contractor, it’s too late – He feels sick, bloated, clogged, and you end up with a HUGE bill!

Metal pipes have had a piping solution for years with a traditional galvanized or other metal cap. But when these caps are used on PVC pipes, such as Pipey, the metals interact with the PVC plastic and exhaust gases to produce ugly rust stains that can seep down and damage your roof covering.

While no one would argue the high quality and durability of PVC pipes, this popular home design omitted a simple solution that saves homeowners hundreds of dollars.

SAVE yourself Hundreds of dollars and make Pipey feel much better for $8.95! The simple and effective solution – the ECap321

Real People: Real Problems:One Solution

My story is quite simple. Our house which is situated in a wooded area has three vent pipes, 3" 2" and 1.5". We heard gurgling from the tub in our main bathroom each time the toilet was flushed. Coincidentally, I learned watching "This Old House" that gurgling was caused by a blocked vent pipe. I
climbed up on my roof with a hose and back-flushed the vent pipes only to discover that the 1.5" was blocked. Fortunately, working with a snake and more back-flushing I was able to unblock the pipe, problem solved! I immediately installed your 'mushroom caps' to prevent future blockage. Great
product!
Thank you,

I would like to thank you for such an innovative invention! Last winter in our new house we had our 2 HVAC unit’s intake and exhaust tubes get covered by 12"+ of snow. Our first indication something was wrong was the HVAC units started to make a pounding noise then we noticed our family all had headaches, and we finally smelled gas. When we realized what was happening and looked outside on the roof we could not even see the intake and exhaust tubes for either of the HVAC units as they were buried in about 24" of snow.

So this summer one of my projects was to extend these tubes above the snow line. When I started to research some way to cover the exposed HVAC and plumbing pipes so nothing could go down the pipes I found that the Home Depot and the other specialty stores had nothing for this. I was surprised to find out that leaving these 2" pipes open to the elements was totally normal. It made no sense to me to allow pine needles, rain, snow and who knows what else to just go down a pipe that extends 30’ down into the walls of our house. If anything was to get down the pipe it most definitely would be an expensive fix. I started searching the internet and found these amazing eCaps. After purchasing 10 eCaps I bought 2 10’ sections of 2" PVC and the connectors. I then cut the pipe into 2’ lengths and glued the cap and adapter sleeve onto the pipe in my garage. When I got to the roof all I had to do was glue the extension with the eCap already in place to the existing pipe and all was good. The only pipes that needed to be cut were the HVAC pipes as they had a 90 degree elbow on them. I finished them with a flat brown Camo Krylon Fusion Plastic Paint before I attached them to the existing pipes. When they were in place I finished the extensions off with the same Fusion paint in Flat, Black, Olive and Khaki.
Thanks to the eCap we are now ready for whatever Mother Nature throws our way!

Dear Sir or Ms,
I can't thank you enough for your ecaps. I ordered and installed two of them this month; one on my furnace exhaust and the other on my sewer vent.
I live in a high wind area and have extremely high pitched roofs on my town home and attached garage. Before installing these, the wind would blow down the sewer vent and dry out the p-traps in my upstairs bathroom causing sewer gas to escape into the house. It also created enough force to constantly loosen the wax gasket on my first floor toilet. If that wasn't bad enough, the wind would also push sewer gas and debris off the house roof onto the garage roof then into the furnace vent, causing the whole mess to back up into my heating system and I know I don't half to tell you how dangerous that was.
Not only are your ecaps doing their job, but they have saved my family health and our sanity. I can't tell you how many HVAC and plumbing contractors we have paid to solve these problems and received no results. It's amazing to me that after four years of struggling, a simple, well designed, inexpensive product solved our problems.
Thank You Again,
K1poter
