Imperial VT0758 Dryer Wall Vent Cap

Product Description

The IMPERIAL VT0758 is a dryer wall vent cap designed to terminate a residential clothes dryer exhaust duct at an exterior wall. It covers the duct opening to block outside air, pests, and debris from entering the duct while allowing exhaust airflow to exit freely during dryer operation. HVAC technicians and installers fit this cap to the exterior of the structure as part of a complete dryer vent system. At 1.95 pounds, it is suited for standard residential installations where a clean, functional exterior termination point is required.

This vent cap is used in residential applications where a clothes dryer exhausts through an exterior wall. It serves as the final component in a dryer duct run, providing a weatherproof termination that opens during operation and closes at rest to limit drafts and prevent backdraft. It is typically installed by HVAC technicians or general contractors during new construction or duct replacement service calls.

Key Features

• Exterior wall-mount design terminates dryer exhaust duct runs at the building envelope
• Blocks outside air, insects, and debris from entering the duct when dryer is not running
• Lightweight construction at 1.95 pounds for straightforward single-technician installation
• Sold individually as a single unit for direct replacement or new installation

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation termination fitting for residential clothes dryer exhaust duct systems routed through an exterior wall.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by an HVAC technician or qualified installer. Disconnect and lock out the dryer from its power source before beginning duct work. Secure the cap to the exterior wall surface according to local building codes and the International Mechanical Code requirements for dryer exhaust terminations. Do not install over existing terminations without first removing the old cap and inspecting the duct opening for obstructions.
