Southwark Metal 1070A12 Rain Cap 12 Inches

Product Description

The SOUTHWARK METAL 1070A12 is a 12-inch rain cap designed to terminate ductwork or flue pipe at a rooftop or exterior wall penetration. Rain caps prevent moisture, debris, and animal intrusion from entering the duct system while allowing exhaust air to discharge freely. This type of fitting is a standard component in residential and light commercial HVAC duct systems. HVAC sheet metal contractors and installers typically handle this fitting as part of duct termination work on new construction and retrofit projects.

The 1070A12 is suited for 12-inch round duct or flue pipe terminations on rooftop or exterior applications. It serves as a protective cap on exhaust outlets for ventilation systems, bath exhaust, and general supply or return terminations where weather protection is required. The fitting is intended for use where the duct exits the building envelope and requires shielding from rain and wind-driven moisture.

Key Features

• 12-inch diameter sizing fits standard round duct termination openings
• Rain cap profile diverts precipitation away from the duct opening
• Suitable for rooftop and exterior wall termination applications
• Standard sheet metal construction typical of SOUTHWARK METAL duct fittings

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for 12-inch round duct or pipe terminations in residential and light commercial HVAC ventilation systems.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a licensed HVAC sheet metal contractor. Shut down the HVAC system and isolate the duct run before cutting any penetration or removing an existing cap. Secure the cap per local mechanical code requirements, ensuring a weather-tight seal at the roof or wall penetration. Follow applicable IMC or SMACNA guidelines for duct termination clearances and fastening.
