Description

UPDATE: Fully customizable design now available for any pipe, length, angle (up to 45 degree), tolerance and several face designs. Check it out here.

 

This is a PVC cover that I am posting in several sizes. For custom sizing just scale the model so the inner diameter is just larger than the outter diameter of your PVC.

 

The following print profiles are available:

For 3" PVC (which actually has 3.5 in OD)

4" PVC

 

You can download and scale x and y to other sizes as needed.

 

To attach it I used good old 5-min epoxy. It is one of my go to's and is very durable and I had it on hand. It has worked great.

 

Why did I make this?

Birds. They decided to move in the heat pump intake/outlets during winter. Nests meant no airflow, no airflow means the heat pump wouldn't kick on. We evicted the new residence and used this to take care of the issue.

If you saved yourself from some birds, or just like the cap, feel free to boost!

For 4 in OD Pipe
I haven't used it yet, but it's very well built and solid, I recommend it to anyone who needs a lid with holes to drain water, it was the only one I found the way I wanted

Thanks for the rating! Glad that worked out. If you have other sized drains you are looking for I do now have a fully customizable pipe cap for any size and different patterned tops. https://makerworld.com/en/models/2868314-customizable-pipe-cap-pvc-cap-heat-pump#profileId-3201883

Great idea. Do you have one for ladybug and bee prevention?

Not sure that would work for the heatpump intake as you need good enough air flow in and out. If you want really small holes for a pipe though, you could try my new fully customizable pipe cap here. Just don't restrict flow too much if it's a heatpump, that could end poorly. : https://makerworld.com/en/models/2868314-customizable-pipe-cap-pvc-cap-heat-pump#profileId-3201883
