Installation Instructions:
Fitting: First, remove interfering shingle nails around the perimeter of the roof opening. Second, depending on the application, apply a bead of shingle adhesive along the bottom of the flange, and slide the top end of the boot up and under the shingle. Last, allow the bottom vent flange to lie on top of the shingles or cut the shingle to fit.
Mounting: Take care to keep the boot properly aligned. Nail in place using 1-1/4” coated or stainless roofing nails spaced 6” to 8” on center, or at least 3 per side, maximum of 1” from the outer edge of the flange, and 1-1/2” from each corner. Apply roofing cement to all shingle edges and nail heads to prevent water infiltration. It is recommended to caulk around the entire perimeter, under the vent flanges, and near the outer edges (7108 Permathane Sealant), especially in severe weather coastal hurricane zones.

The Bullet Goose Neck Vent, also known as, the Bullet Vent is used to vent kitchen hoods and to vent dryer vents. It comes in a two-piece design, almost indestructible heavy duty thermoplastic elastomer.
It has a built-in cricket to enhance water flow. The Bullet Goose Neck Vent also has built-in flashing and a removable mesh that must be removed if the Bullet Vent is used as a dryer vent.
The dampener on the inside is to prevent back-flow of lint or vented air.
A great benefit that saves time and money is that the Bullet Goose Neck Vent doesn’t need to be painted because it comes in several colors. The Bullet Vent will not crack in either extreme cold or extreme heat.
The Bullet Goose Neck Vent is available in three sizes.
The 8 inch and the 10 inch are both 9 inches tall, available in the colors: black, brown, gray, weathered wood and white. The 9 inch Bullet Goose Neck Vent is 12 ½ inches tall and it is designed for tile roofs. The 9 inch vent comes in limited colors: Brown, Gray, Terracotta, and Weathered Wood.

With 12 fasteners, it has a wind uplift resistance of -305 pounds per square feet.
Roof jacks are, currently, the most common products used to vent dryer vents, but the roof jacks have huge problems when compared to the Bullet Goose Neck Vents. The roof jacks arrive at your roof project site dented, scratched, and some even arrive crushed because it’s difficult to ship them without damaging them. Insurance adjusters have been known to deny insurance claims siting the inability to distinguish between pre-existing damage and hail damage. Continuing to install traditional metal roof jacks could be costing roofing contractors in the long run.
The roof jack shown on the video is supposed to arrive in new condition, but damage during transportation is unavoidable because the roof jacks are made out of metal. The roof jack shown on the video is new, yet it has several scratches and dents. The new roof jack is not only a mess, but they don’t come with a mesh so debris and rodents will get into the house from that opening.
