[QUOTE="SLE, post: 357679, member: 3889"] Yep, made my Tee like the sewer skewer and capped the ends of the Tee and drilled holes through it. Mines is heavier copper, larger diameter and is 12’ long and sure as shit it froze over yesterday (12/25’). So even with a giant sewer skewer and a black insul-vent slip over cover I still freeze up on occasion! Way less than it used to be but once or twice a winter I have to haul water up the ladder and dump it down the vent 🤬. I did track it down to I never had an issue until my daughter moved downstairs 🙄. Obviously the vent run is pretty long from down there and the humid air is cooling too much before to get us to the roof. Not sure what my next remedy will be. Maybe heat tape to a switch but I’m a little afraid of it being a fire hazard. So burn the house down or break my leg falling off the ladder someday 🤷♂️? [/QUOTE]
