The Benefits of Roof Ventilation
Adding a roof ventilation system comes with a wide array of benefits for any homeowner. A few perks include:
- Lower energy bills: A proper ventilation system can release excess heat or cold that collects in your attic, making it easier to cool your home.
- Less HVAC stress: When your HVAC system doesn’t have to constantly compete with trapped air in the attic, it can more quickly bring your home to a comfortable temperature.
- Better indoor air quality: When stagnant air gets trapped in your home, it can lead to a stuffy feeling until the air is released.
- Less moisture: An attic with little to no ventilation can create a damp, musty space, leading to mold development or insect nests.
Types of Roof Ventilation Systems
Roof ventilation systems allow warm, moist air to escape and cool, fresh air to enter the attic. Every type offers unique advantages depending on the weather and design of the house. Types of roof ventilation systems include:
- Ridge vents: These vents are installed along the roof peak and blend seamlessly with the roofline. They allow hot air to escape naturally and blend seamlessly into the roofline.
- Gable vents: These vents allow cross-ventilation by providing a path for airflow from one side of the attic to the other.
- Soffit vents: These roof air vents are installed under the eaves and allow cool air to enter, pushing warm air up toward higher vents such as ridge or gable vents.
- Solar-powered vents: This product uses solar energy to actively push out hot air from the attic.
- Whole-house exhaust fan: Installed in the attic, these fans pull cool outdoor air into the space and push hot air out, reducing the indoor temperature.
