Believe it or not, but your job performing duct leakage tests is dangerous. When you’re relying on vent tape, you run the risk of falling off a ladder and easily damaging your customer’s home. Ditching the tape and starting to use Vent Caps will solve both problems. You’ll be able to lose the ladder and do a better job of protecting the property you’re testing.

How Vent Caps Work

Unlike vent tape which has an adhesive that sticks to the register and surrounding area, a Vent Cap simply locks into place over the register with non-damaging foam and adequate pressure.

Instead of having to climb a ladder and deal with sticky, cumbersome tape, you just connect the hook onto the pole RAT (remote attachment tool). You then place the hook flush with the duct register and attach it by turning it 90°. Once that’s done, you snap the hanging Vent Cap onto the pole RAT and raise it along the cord towards the register. Finally, you rock the pole to the side while keeping positive pressure on the cord and hook, and release the Vent Cap.

While it may seem like a few steps, it actually takes only 20 seconds to seal a register and 10 seconds to unseal it. With vent tape, you have to climb a ladder and deal with applying and adjusting tape onto each register. This takes at least a minute or two, and that’s only if you’re lucky.

Protect Your Customer’s Home During Duct Leakage Testing

Vent tape requires you to be extra cautious with application and removal. You’ve likely experienced the annoyance when tape doesn’t want to stick to a register on a textured surface, or the sheer terror when you rip off some paint or wallpaper.

With Vent Caps, you get a tight seal that doesn’t use any adhesive, so both application and removal are quick, and there’s no risk of any unexpected damage. On top of protecting your customer’s walls and ceilings, you’ll also be protecting their furniture and yourself by not having to use a ladder!
