Apparently, if you leave a plumbing vent pipe wide open, every bird, squirrel, rat, and freeloading critter in the neighborhood thinks you just opened a luxury rooftop apartment complex. ππΏοΈπ¦
“Look, honey! No rent, great view, and the idiot homeowner even left the front door open!”
Plumbing vent screens help keep rodents, birds, leaves, nests, and other garbage from dropping into your vent pipes and causing problems. Because believe it or not, squirrels don’t understand plumbing codes, birds don’t pull permits, and rats aren’t exactly known for respecting private property.
Once they start stuffing sticks, leaves, feathers, nuts, and whatever other nonsense they dragged out of the woods into your vent pipe, airflow can become restricted—and suddenly your plumbing starts acting like it needs an exorcism.
Gurgling toilets. Slow drains. Weird smells. All because Rocky the Squirrel decided your plumbing vent was the perfect place to raise a family.
A simple vent screen can help keep the wildlife OUT and your plumbing vent doing what it was designed to do.
At American Plumbing, we believe your vent pipe should move AIR—not operate as a maternity ward for squirrels.
Protect your pipes.
The animals can find somewhere else to squat. ππͺ
