What are the benefits of proper ventilation?
- Extends the life of shingled roofs by minimizing the temperature differential between the attic air and the outside air. It keeps the roof system cool during the hot summer months, preventing premature deterioration and less shingle replacement.
- Extends the life of metal roofs systems by preventing moisture from condensation that develops on the underside of the roof, ultimately causing rust & other structural problems.
- Prevents ice damming caused when the heat from inside the building and the sun melts the snow at the ridge. This causes water to run to the eaves and refreeze and the repetition of this process causes ice dams.
- Provides energy savings in the summertime by cooling the roof sheathing, preventing premature roof deterioration, premature roof replacement and increased servicing of cooling units due to their excessive use. It prevents heat build-up in unvented systems which radiates downward and increases the demand on cooling systems.
- Provides energy savings in the wintertime by preventing hot and cold air to interact and cause moisture from condensation that causes soaked insulation, corrosion and water infiltration.
