Roof Vents
Your Attic Needs Roof Vents
How Roof Vents Work
- Proper airflow is crucial to keeping your house at a moderate temperature, keeping you comfortable and your energy bill affordable. Not only will a hot and muggy attic run up your electricity bill, it will through off the air flow of your house, create too hot of an upstairs and freezing rooms below.
- Circulating the air in the attic has a number of beneficial effects on the roof and the house in general. In winter, the circulation allows heat to escape, thus keeping the roof colder and preventing ice dams from forming. In summer, attic ventilation does just the opposite. It keeps the attic cooler and reduces the amount of energy you need to devote to air conditioning.
Why They Are Important
- Roof vents ensure proper ventilation, how ever its possible to over do it. Too much ventilation can be just as bad as not enough ventilation. Roof vents create additional roof penetration, where leaks may occur.
- As a general rule, your roof needs 1 square foot of vent area for every 150 square feet of attic space. Thus, if your attic is 450 square feet, you need roof vents equaling 3 square feet. This ensures the right amount of ventilation so moisture does not build up, without compromising
