Proper attic ventilation lets your home breath. Normal household activities, like bathing, or cooking, generate moisture that can damage insulation, rafter, wood deck, and shingles during winter. During the summer the daytime attic temperature may reach over 150 degrees. The heat buildup in the attic will increase the load on the air conditioner and reduce its efficiency. Hot attic air is potentially destructive causing premature aging and cracking of wood and roofing materials. All of which can shorten roof life.

Solution: Proper attic ventilation is most effectively accomplished with a balanced combination of ridge vent and soffit vents. This type of ventilation system allows the best air circulation; it helps in controlling attic temperature and moisture content; it extends the life of your shingles; it reduces energy cost and gives the roof a more aesthetically pleasing look.
