COPELAND ROOFING CAN HELP

Why Is Proper Roof Ventilation Important?
Ventilation is the process of supplying a continuous supply of air through the attic space. Intake should be under the eaves. Exhaust should be near or at the peak.
Home ventilation is important to minimize or eliminate the negative effects of heat and moisture so that you preserve the structural integrity of your home. You must ventilate year-round.
Heat in unventilated attics may cause temperatures to exceed 150 degrees, causing damage to shingles, roof sheathing, and possibly your living area. Moisture can cause rot, mildew, mold, paint blisters, and renders insulation ineffective.
Proper ventilation reduces energy bills, winter ice build up and eliminates mold/mildew which can lead to major health problems. By ventilating, you are extending the life of other building components, shingles, insulation, etc.

How to Choose the Best Ventilation System for Your Home
THE STYLE OF YOUR ROOF WILL INFLUENCE YOUR CHOICE
-
Gable Roof? We recommend ridge vents for maximum exposure from end-to-end of your roof.
-
Hip Roof? We recommend power fans that come with thermostat controls and kick on/off automatically.
SIZE THE SYSTEM PROPERLY FOR THE SIZE OF YOUR HOME
A ventilation system must be properly sized for your home. So the first step is to determine your attic size in square feet. Then, choose an exhaust system based on your attic size. Finally, choose the intake vents based on the total square feet in your attic.
