We, at Gerry Ray’s roofing are experts when it comes to Attic ventilation solutions and applications. The products we use are industry leaders in ventilation systems. Proper attic venting is very important. Improper ventilation can lead to high energy consumption, mold and shingle deterioration. A vented attic will lower energy consumption and prolong the life of your roof.
In hot weather, proper ventilation keeps the attic cool and prevents it from becoming a hot box that will produce unwanted heat that could travel down through the attic floor and into the living area. When the weather is cold, proper ventilation prevents moisture from condensing onto the insulation, shingles, or on the roof. This will reduce the chance of mold growth and will prolong the life of your roof. In the winter, proper venting maintains a consistent roof sheathing temperature. A consistent temperature reduces the possibility of ice dam formation. Without proper ventilation, warm spots will form near the eaves that will melt the snow, which can re-freeze into a dam. This process will continue which will lead to roof and structure damage.
