Ridge Vents with Soffit Vents ensure proper air circulation and attic ventilation to protect your home from the summer heat. A properly installed roof and roof ventilation system is more energy efficient and can reduce your utility bills.

You might think that the most energy-efficient attic is one that is sealed tight against the outside-air but that is not the case. Proper ventilation is not only required by building codes, its an integral part of The Energy Efficient Attic^® Solution.

We employ a combination of soffit vents and ridge vents to pull air through the attic. Wind or natural convection pulls air out of the attic through the ridge vents, while replacement air flows in through the soffits. It’s a system that works with no moving parts or energy consumption. Depending upon the structure of your roof, other systems may be recommended – we also install air hawks and a variety of powered and solar-powered vents.

In warm months, adequate attic ventilation prevents heat buildup in the attic, thereby reducing the load on your cooling system. In colder weather, it serves to pull out the warm moist air generated by your laundry, showers, cooking, etc.(3-5 gallons per day – or more). If not vented, this moisture can condense on cooler solid surfaces and drip – becoming trapped in the roofing and insulation, which can cause extensive damage.

Proper attic ventilation also contributes to the performance of insulation and radiant barrier spray. The results are added comfort in all seasons, reduced energy consumption through out the year, and the prevention of damage to your home.

Soffit Vents are installed to allow air to enter the attic and exhaust through the ridge vent.
