About the ecap
What is the E-Cap?
After an exhaustive search of every supplier in town and across the internet, he made the decision to come up with something of his own. Working with a friend on the wholesale side, both with over 50 years experience in the HVAC industry, they eventually designed the E-Cap. With their unique interior design, which allowed one cap to fit the most common three sizes of PVC pipe used, they were able to accomplish their mission.
Once they received their patent and CSA approval, they proceeded to market the E-Cap through the HVAC wholesale trade. HVAC manufacturers, including York, Frazier Johnson, Luxaire, Coleman, Bosch and others, tested the E-Cap with nothing short of superlative results and thus, the E-Cap has become a prominent fixture in the HVAC industry.

Who is JAF Industries?
JAF Industries was created, in 2005, to reach out to the general public with a new concept to inform and help homeowners with the dilemma facing them in protecting their open and exposed PVC pipes. JAF Industries created a virtual town, called Sunnytowne. In Sunnytowne, all seems well until you look on the roofs and see a whole different scenario. You see a lonely PVC pipe, named Pipey, who is being picked on and battling forces that are out to stop him up and causing him to become sick and bloated. With the people down below not aware that before their very eyes their homes are being invaded, a hero is needed to save the day. Pipey dreams of a hero who comes along called, ‘Fit the Wonder Cap’. He comes on the scene with a solution to Pipey’s dilemma. He will put on an E-cap that will protect Pipey from the elements out to harm Pipey, and in the process cost the homeowners time and expenses.
A video about the adventures of Fit the Wonder Cap and Pipey was created and soon thereafter an interactive video game called “Homeowner’s Revenge,” is quite entertaining and was produced to help homeowners learn about the problems facing them and discover the solution to the real problems that are facing them.
JAF Industries targets the E-Cap for use on 90%+ Furnace vent pipes, PVC plumbing vent pipes, and Radon vent pipes.
The ECAP321 is APPROVED in the United States and Canada by CSA International for use on 3 sizes (1½", 2" & 3") for use on plastic vent pipes from High Efficiency furnace installations with maximum outlet temperatures of 212 OF(100 OC)
