RV Roof Vent Cap Replacement | Plumbing Vent Cap Replacement

This video document my first attempt to replace the vet cap on my RV Black and Gray water tanks. The new vent is made by Lippert and is called the 360 Siphon Vent. It is supposed to draw the vapors out of the tank eliminating odor in the RV.

Two suggestions: It might be a good idea to clean the surface that you are going to put the dicor on with a little mineral spirits on a rag and then wipe any residue of mineral spirits off with a dry rag. Second, putting screws back in the original hole will make it more difficult for someone else to replace the vent down the road. The dicor should seal those holes perfectly without the screws.

Just an FYI… the square head screws are called “Robertson’s”
Peter Lymburner Robertson was a Canadian inventor, industrialist, salesman, and philanthropist who popularized the square-socket drive for screws, often called the Robertson drive. Although a square-socket drive had been conceived decades before, it had never been developed into a commercial success because the design was difficult to manufacture. Robertson's efficient manufacturing technique using cold forming for the screw's head is what made the idea a commercial success.

A little over kill is just find with me.
I would have rather hand tighen screws going in, not a power screw driver.
