Why Roof Vents Matter

Roof vents manage airflow, reducing moisture buildup, preventing mold, and maintaining comfortable indoor temperatures. A well-vented attic protects your roof’s integrity and supports energy efficiency.

Types of Roof Vents

  1. Ridge Vents: Installed along roof peaks for seamless, efficient ventilation.

  2. Box Vents: Target specific areas, ideal for homes needing concentrated venting.

  3. Solar Powered Vents: Eco-friendly and cost-effective in the long term.

  4. Off-Ridge Vents: Cost-effective and smaller in profile.

  5. Electric Powered Vents: Highly efficient but can increase energy costs.

  6. Cupola Vents: Attractive and functional, often with a traditional aesthetic.

  7. Roof Turbines: Use wind to power airflow; effective but weather-dependent.

Interesting Fact: Effective ventilation can prolong roof life by up to 20% by reducing temperature extremes that cause material wear.
