Does my Roof need more Ventilation?
Ventilation is important as it reduces moisture and heat in your attic, extending the life of your roof. If your roof is lacking in ventilation there’s no better time to correct this problem than when it’s being repaired. We can explain the need for both exhaust and intake ventilation after a thorough inspection of your roof. In addition, roof and soffit vents are easy to install and can be completed in a short period of time. Based on the size of your roof and its existing ventilation, the experts at Brian Sikes can recommend the right amount of additional ventilation for your home.
Benefits of a Properly Vented Attic
Better Living Environment
By allowing hot air to escape your attic in the heat of the summer, your living spaces will remain cooler. Your AC unit can work more efficiently, and this will help your roof shingles from expanding due to excess moisture. And, you’ll save money on your utility bills.
Damage Prevention
Even in the winter attics can be significantly warmer and humid. By allowing the warmer air to escape through attic ventilation, condensation decreases. This is important to prevent damage to your home’s insulation, wood framing, roof deck and drywall. As hot air escapes it also sucks in cooler air through soffit vents that keep your roof dry and aids in cooling.
Lifespan of Your Roof
In order to insure your roof reaches its full lifespan it needs proper ventilation. In fact, a roof that is not properly vented can cause the thermal expansion of your shingles, that can shorten the life of your roof by as much as half and jeopardize the shingle warranty.
Unfortunately, improperly installed attic ventilation is quite common. Some of the reasons your ventilation may not be performing properly could be the vents are blocked by insulation or roof felt. We are experts in attic ventilation installation and repair as well as ridge vents and other types of roof vents such as soffit or gable-end vents.
