Galvanized pipe is desirable above the roofline due to its higher corrosion
resistance. Continue to add pipe sections through the flashing until the
height of the vent cap meets the minimum height requirements specified
in table below or local codes. Note that for steep roof pitches, the
vertical height must be increased. A poor draft, or down drafting
can result from high wind conditions near big trees or adjoining
roof lines, in these cases, increasing the vent height may solve the
problem.
