Imperial Mfg Group Usa Inc GV0588 Round Vent Cap 5 in

Product Description

The IMPERIAL MFG GROUP USA INC GV0588 is a 5-inch round galvanized vent cap designed to terminate residential and light commercial venting runs at an exterior wall or roof penetration. The galvanized steel construction resists corrosion from moisture and exhaust gases, making it a reliable choice for gas appliance venting, dryer exhaust, and general HVAC exhaust applications. HVAC technicians and sheet metal installers use this cap to prevent backdrafts, block pests, and protect duct openings from weather infiltration. The round profile fits standard 5-inch round duct collars without modification.

This vent cap is suited for residential and light commercial installations where a 5-inch round duct terminates at an exterior surface. Typical applications include gas furnace B-vent terminations, bathroom or utility exhaust runs, and general ventilation duct endings. It is installed by HVAC technicians, plumbers, or sheet metal contractors as part of a code-compliant venting system. The cap ships in a package quantity of 10 units, making it practical for multi-unit jobs or stocking service vehicles.
