Doing a particular restoration job for a client, client has requested a vented cap / guard for the dwv pipe on the roof to avoid vandalism by concrete, sand or debris. Sorry I just noticed my TYPO.

I've seen galvanized metal vented caps, any additional ideas?

Why not have a lookdown installed. Could still get a snake in if needed.

Debris won't fall in an up direction.

Good idea, thanks for the tip. I didn't think of a 180. Thanks!
