Expert Verdict — Reviewed by the SuperArbor Pro Desk
Fan jacks terminate ceiling exhaust fans through the roof; select the base pitch that matches the roof slope and confirm the 8-inch duct diameter before ordering. Install per the manufacturer's instructions, flashing the base into the roofing and sealing fastener penetrations per local code.
Work on roofs only with proper fall protection and follow local building codes for roof penetrations.
