By Jenny Yu.  

Learn about the industry’s first X-Top exhaust vent. 

FlashCo is an industry leader in prefabricated and premolded roofing accessories. As one of the largest manufacturers of roof flashings and accessories, FlashCo serves roofing contractors, distributors and other manufacturers across the United States.  

This year, FlashCo is celebrating its 25th anniversary by giving their customers a present: a new shape for their roof vent line. Joining the EZ Flapper and T-Top exhaust vents, the X-Top exhaust vent provides another option to meet the unique needs of single-ply, low-slope roofing systems.  

While the EZ Flapper is recommended for dryer vent applications and the T-Top specializes in preventing water from infiltrating a structure, FlashCo’s X-Top is an exhaust vent designed to block out high winds while allowing for non-heated exhaust ventilation. Its internal screens keep insects and other debris out of ventilated areas. FlashCo’s X-Top TPO flashing is a factory-welded reinforced membrane and has a three-inch weldable flange. The X-shaped hood is made of SMP painted steel, closely matching the color of the TPO.  

The X-Top eliminates field fabrication and boasts quick installation. In addition, its removeable top makes for straightforward maintenance and the product comes with FlashCo’s well-known superior customer service, saving contractors time and headaches. 

X-Tops come in three standard sizes: four inches, six inches and eight inches. Customers can choose from five standard TPO colors: white, gray, tan, slate gray and dark bronze, and three standard PVC colors: white, gray and tan.
