Imperial VT0501-B 4 Inch White Dryer Vent Hood Commercial Grade

Product Description

The IMPERIAL MFG GROUP USA INC VT0501-B is a 4-inch white dryer vent hood designed for commercial-grade heavy-duty exhaust applications. Built to the R-2 Pro specification, it features a removable hood and a 12-inch tail pipe that directs moist exhaust air away from the building exterior. The unit is paintable, making it adaptable to match siding or trim on residential and light commercial structures. HVAC and appliance installation professionals use this fitting as the terminal exhaust point for dryer ductwork runs.

This dryer vent hood is suited for 4-inch round duct systems on residential and commercial dryer installations. The 12-inch tail pipe provides clearance from the wall surface to reduce backdraft potential and moisture infiltration. The removable hood simplifies cleaning and lint inspection during routine service calls. Its heavy-duty construction makes it appropriate for multi-family, laundromat, or high-cycle commercial laundry environments where standard residential fittings wear prematurely.

Compatibility

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by an HVAC technician or licensed appliance installer following local mechanical codes and manufacturer instructions. Disconnect the dryer from power or gas before making any duct connections at the exterior wall penetration. Seal the fitting perimeter with appropriate exterior caulk to prevent moisture intrusion and air infiltration. Verify that the duct run length and number of elbows comply with the dryer manufacturer and local code requirements for maximum allowable exhaust path length.
