Proper roof ventilation ensures the maximum life and performance of your roof. Without adequate ventilation, even the best roof systems fail. Balanced ventilation requires an equal amount of intake ventilation and exhaust. Our manufacturers suggest, at a minimum, providing 1 square foot of Net Free Ventilation for every 300 square feet of attic floor space. Local building codes may vary so consult your roofing contractor and municipality to see exactly what is requires by code.
A properly balanced attic ventilation system will help to:
- Increase your roof’s lifespan by removing excess moisture.
- Prevent rotting wood and mold in your attic on or your roof deck.
- Minimize damage to exterior and interior paint.
- Possibly reduce heating and cooling costs.
