[QUOTE="SLE, post: 199728, member: 3889"] not always, just came in the house after climbing the ladder to dump hot water down our east vent to thaw it out. Used one of the original sewer skewers with no luck, then a year later tried the insul-vent from menards, maybe better but still had issues. This year installed a 12 ft copper tee to get it to reach the first bend in the vent and used 3/4 copper pipe, soddered a tee to the top, capped the ends and drilled vent holes just like a sewer skewer on steroids and here I am still climbing up a ladder and dumping water down the vent :mad:! And as a kicker, the insul-vents are still up also……Next year I’m rigging up a weed burner with a remote valve and wifi igniter! [COLOR="silver"][SIZE=1]- - - Updated - - -[/SIZE][/COLOR] Had zero issues until my daughter turned into a teenager and move down stairs. I’m willing to bet the issue fixes itself in two years when she heads off to college, lol. [/QUOTE]
