We start by calculating the required ventilation for your attic. For ventilation to work correctly you need high and low ventilation. Many older homes only have high or low, we correct this. Whether you need a ridge vent, soffit vents, gable vent, roof vent etc our guys can install them all.
Attic Ventilation
Venting your attic is important for several reasons:
- Moisture Control: Proper attic ventilation helps prevent moisture buildup from everyday activities like cooking and showering. Excess moisture can lead to mold growth, wood rot, and damage to insulation.
- Temperature Regulation: In hot weather, attic ventilation allows hot air to escape, reducing the temperature in the attic and easing the load on your air conditioning system. In cold weather, it helps maintain a cooler attic temperature, preventing snow on the roof from melting and refreezing, which can cause ice dams.
- Extended Roof Lifespan: By reducing heat and moisture buildup, ventilation helps protect roofing materials from premature deterioration, extending the life of your roof.
- Improved Energy Efficiency: A well-ventilated attic can help keep your home cooler in the summer and reduce the need for air conditioning, lowering energy costs.
- Enhanced Indoor Air Quality: Good airflow in the attic can help prevent the buildup of pollutants and allergens, contributing to a healthier home environment.
