American Metal Products 5CW Louvered Universal Vent Cap

Product Description

The AMERICAN METAL PRODUCTS 5CW is a louvered universal vent cap designed for 5-inch round duct terminations. Constructed from aluminum, it provides a corrosion-resistant exterior termination point for exhaust or supply duct systems. The cap measures 9-7/8 inches wide by 4-5/16 inches high and mounts at the point where ductwork exits a structure. Its louvered face allows airflow while blocking wind-driven rain, debris, and pests from entering the duct. HVAC technicians and sheet metal installers use this cap on residential and light commercial duct systems as a clean, durable exterior finish.

The 5CW suits exterior wall or soffit terminations on residential and light commercial duct runs. It is appropriate for bathroom exhaust, dryer venting, kitchen range hood exhaust, and general HVAC supply or return duct terminations that require a 5-inch fitting. The universal design accommodates a range of standard 5-inch duct configurations, making it a practical stock item for service trucks and supply rooms.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by an HVAC technician or sheet metal contractor. Power down any associated fan or air-handling equipment before beginning work on the duct termination. Seal the cap flange to the exterior wall surface with an appropriate weather-resistant caulk or flashing to prevent water infiltration.
