Many people do not realize that, by definition, asphalt
& membrane roofs are similar to putting a plastic bag over your home,
suffocating it. That is why proper attic ventilation both high & low, is
critical to the health of your home.
Improper attic ventilation can rot your roof deck,
shorten the life of your roof, cause curling or cupped shingles, degrade your
insulation, cause paint to peel and blister, create an environment for mold,
reduce your comfort level, overwork your heating/cooling system, and is one of
the major causes of ice dams.
It is important to determine the right amount of
ventilation for homes. Most homes today are not ventilated to minimum FHA
standards. That means relatively little intake and exhaust ventilation in the
attic. Our line of power ventilators, roof vents, gable vents, bathroom exhaust
roof caps, undereave and soffit vents can provide adequate ventilation, which
in return will cut your energy bills, provide for a cooler home and prolong the
life of shingles, rafters, insulation and ceilings. Ventilation products also
reduce harmful winter moisture and ice damming so the roof and the home are
protected year round.
Our estimators are trained to recognize & recommend
solutions for homes with inadequate attic ventilation.
