Thread 2944206

I had a 4in furnace vent coming out of pic related on muh roof. Its no longer used because we switched to heat pump. What's a good way to keep rain and critters from getting in there?
It's a fairly steep roof so I'm worried that just putting a rain cap on will allow water to splash up into it or snow to pile against it and get in.
I was going to leave the pipe on it but it won't stand straight because it's not attached to anything and I don't trust a tiny bead of silly cone to keep water out.
I don't want to pull the flashing because I'll surely ruin the shingles.

What if you just jammed a bunch of dildos in there and caulk it up? That way if you ever get hit by a tornado the dildos will go flying into the air like a SAM battery.

Remove the flue collar and tooth in some new shingles. Don't half ass it like some kind of lazy asshole.

That sounds exactly like half assing it... wouldn't the proper repair be tearing it off completely, patching the decking back to the nearest seam, putting new underlayment, and then slipping the shingles back in??? But let's be real honest, no one is going to do that until it's time to tear off and replace the roof.

There should already have been a vent cap with a screen in it that prevents ingress. If you feel lazy you could just put onto screened vent cap on the interior side of the same vent run.

The roof is brand new and the dicks didn't leave any spare shingles for me.
I'd like to avoid fucking up a new roof if possible
