Default Roof vent hazzard

Absolutely agree. Most of the roofers rip the shingles and vent boxes off the roof and they disconnect the roof vent box on the roof from the vent pipe from your dryer. They merely place a new roof box over the hole in the roof and nail it. Dryer vent is not connected. Most roofers install roofs by the “wham , bam, thank you ma’am method. They definitely did not go into your attic to check or connect your dryer vent. And just because the Sumter County inspected and passed the roof means nothing. The Inspector also does not go into your atttic to check your dryer vent connection. They really don’t even go on the roof to check the roof installation. It’s all about the money. It’s unbelievable how many homes in The Villages do not have their dryer vent sealed, connected and terminated into the roof box above the roof surface.
