Sealing up leaking storage tank vents
Hey, people. I was putting in a new vent cover and realized just how bad my storage tank vents looked. The rain caps had disintegrated off and a previous owner just bought new vents, dropped them on...

Ah, hah! MichF gets it. If you haven't looked at my thread about rebuilding the cabover, then you might not understand what I am working with.
Cabover rebuild thread
That top railing MichF points out seems useless to me. I paid to have a "professional shop" seal my roof. It all looks horrible and they did not recommend replacing those top vents or bother sealing around the pipes. They just looked, saw a roof leak and ignored it, while making sure to take my money.
I am not completely new to what is going on here and I see I could have been more clear about the temp. nature of this fix. Few people are willing to take on the level of work that I did with my cabover rebuild. I would think that I have demonstrated I prefer to do things "right".
Mocoondo could have been better informed or polite. That is the best way to deal with people, especially when you don't know who they are, what they are capable of or what they are dealing with.
Ozlander - I absolutely agree with you. That vent is the way to go and what I will use when I rebuild the back section of the roof. Thanks for the hint.
