Fort Wayne Area Attic Ventilation
Attic ventilation is a crucial way to regulate attic temperature. With asphalt shingle roofs, ridge vents, also known as soffit vents, are hidden on the underside of the roof's eaves and covered by a layer of shingles so that they're invisible.
Hot air naturally rises to the attic where it then escapes through the vents to the outdoors. This helps your air conditioning system keep up by pushing hot air outside rather than trying to transform it all into cool air.
A well-ventilated roof can make life a lot easier for those living beneath it. It can prevent moisture buildup (which helps prevent mold growth), lower energy bills (and therefore reduce energy costs), maximize your roof's life, and improve the occupants' living conditions. If you're looking at a roofing company that doesn't include vents in their discussion with you, that's a red flag.
Attic vents are often overlooked or forgotten, but they're an important part of any truly finished project. Our team of roofing professionals always puts your needs first, and that means making sure your roof is installed with proper ventilation.
