What To Know About Roof Ventilation
Roof ventilation refers to the system that allows air to flow through your attic space, typically by using vents to let cool air in near the eaves and hot air out near the roof peak, preventing excessive heat and moisture buildup which can damage your roof and compromise your home's energy efficiency; proper ventilation is crucial for maintaining a healthy roof and regulating attic temperature throughout the seasons, especially by preventing ice dams in winter and overheating in summer.
Intake Ventilation
Air intake vents are used to allow outside air to enter into attics and ventilation spaces. Intake vents should be located along a roof assembly's lowest eaves at or near soffits. Intake vents are best used with exhaust vents that are located at or near a roof assembly's peak.
Exhaust Ventilation
Roof exhaust ventilation refers to a system on a roof that allows hot, stale air to escape from the attic space through dedicated vents, typically installed along the ridge of the roof, creating a proper airflow by drawing fresh air in from lower intake vents like soffits.
