Product Description

The RUUD SP20131 is a 4-inch horizontal extension vent kit designed for residential water heater venting applications. The kit includes a vent tube, silicone band, and self-drill screws, providing all the hardware needed for a complete horizontal vent extension installation. At 5.75 pounds and measuring 54.0 inches in length, this kit is sized for standard horizontal vent runs on power-vent or direct-vent water heaters.
