Expert Verdict — Reviewed by the SuperArbor Pro Desk
Choose the shake base when the vent penetrates a shake or heavily textured roof where a standard flat base would leave exposed gaps. Match the base diameter to the listed vent pipe, order the top assembly from the same code cap system, and confirm your roof pitch is 5/12 or less before specifying this assembly.
Gas vent penetrations must be installed to the listing requirements and local code; both top and base must bear the approval label, so verify pitch and labeling before installation.
Order the Arts Galvanized Fan Jack shake base to complete your Type B gas vent code cap assembly.
