Line Set Re-Boot
Prevent water infiltration and pests with a 2-in. Oatey plastic/rubber flashing. Seal your AC line set easily for a protected home.
When I built our new home, I wanted to seal up my AC line set with something simple and readily available that would prevent water infiltration and rodent and bug infestations. My solution was to use a 2-in. Oatey plastic/rubber flashing designed for roof plumbing penetrations. I simply installed the boot before the line set was installed and had the siding subs trim around it. I am very happy with the result.
