Product Information
ArcticVent is the only cCSAus approved solution to freeze protect plumbing vent stacks. Prolonged cold temperatures cause plumbing stacks to ice up and form a blockage as warm moist air rises, condenses and freezes. ArcticVent eliminates this ice blockage where it exits the roof of a building. ArcticVent is constructed with LEXAN® for high strength in severe cold. ArcticVent can be used in new installations or to retro-fit existing non-protected (standard) 3 inch to 6 inch plumbing vent stacks.
Product Application
ArcticVent is designed for new or existing installations where a freeze protected plumbing vent stack is required. They are installed where ventilation ice blockages occur due to rising condensation in prolonged freezing temperatures. This remarkable, energy-efficient product uses a meager 75 watts of power to keep vents open in temperatures below -50 degrees F. ArcticVent can be used under continuous power for freeze maintenance or powered when required to thaw a frozen plumbing stack.
