Expert, Certified Roofing Ventilation Contractor.

Most house-owners consider the gable vents as the satisfactory way to run the air flow circulation. But such roof venting could be insufficient for building. And as the result, inadequate house-ventilation strategy could cause the moisture in the house condensing on the underside of the roof deck and other problems.

Optimal Attic Ventilation: What You Need to Know

When it comes to your home in the hot Atlanta weather, proper attic ventilation is essential. Improper attic ventilation can lead to several issues that affect both your home and your roof.

Why Proper Attic Ventilation Matters?

  1. Deterioration of Roofing Materials:

    • When your attic lacks proper ventilation, it can cause early degradation of your roof.
    • Moisture accumulation in the attic leads to rusting of nails, flashing, and duct straps, resulting in damaging leaks.
    • Excessive moisture also encourages mold and mildew growth beneath your shingles, causing them to rot.
    • Look out for loose or falling-off shingles, as poor ventilation can lead to extreme temperatures that harm roofing materials.
  2. Ice Dams (Usually not a problem in the Atlanta area):
    • During winter, heat from your home seeps into the attic, melting snow on the roof.
    • The resulting water runs down to the cooler eaves, where it freezes and forms ice dams.
    • These ice dams can damage roofing materials over time.
  3. Mold or Mildew Buildup:
    • In poorly ventilated attics, condensation accumulates on trusses and the underside of the roof.
    • This dripping water can lead to mold, mildew, or rot development over time.
  4. Extreme Heat in the Attic:
    • Attics, being unconditioned spaces, tend to get warmer than the rest of the home during summer.
    • Poor ventilation traps heat, causing attic temperatures to soar (up to 150°F in some climates).
    • Such extreme heat can damage roofing materials.
  5. Pest Infestations:
    • Lack of ventilation makes your attic more appealing to pests like rats, squirrels, mice, termites, birds, raccoons, insects, and bees.
    • When ventilation issues damage your roof, gutters, or siding, it creates openings for these unwanted visitors.

Proper attic ventilation ensures a healthier home and extends the lifespan of your roofing system!

Attic Ventilation: A Quick Overview

  1. Gable Vents: Many homeowners rely on gable vents (those triangular openings on the sides of roofs) for airflow. However, these vents might not be sufficient for proper ventilation.
  2. The Problem: Inadequate ventilation can lead to moisture buildup inside the house. Imagine moisture condensing on the underside of your roof deck—definitely not ideal!
  3. Expert Advice: To assess your roof venting, consult specialists. They’ll evaluate your setup and provide helpful recommendations.
  4. Our Solution: Our company offers comprehensive services to enhance your home’s ventilation system. Here’s what we suggest:
    • Ridge Vent: Consider installing a ridge vent along the peak of your roof. It allows hot air to escape, promoting better circulation.
    • Soffit Vents: If needed, add soffit vents near the eaves. These intake vents bring fresh air into the attic.
    • Gable Vents: We’ll either block or incorporate existing gable vents into a more effective attic-ventilation strategy.

A well-ventilated home is a happy home!

Attic Ventilation - Ridge Vent

Our Home Ventilation Services

Our company focuses on critical aspects of building construction, aiming to achieve optimal attic temperature and efficient air circulation throughout the house. If roof venting falls short, excess pressure builds up in the attic due to trapped hot air, preventing fresh outside air from entering.

  1. Professional Solutions: To avoid ventilation-related issues, seek professional recommendations and installation. Our services include:
    • Ridge Vent Installation: Along the roof peak, ridge vents allow hot air to escape.
    • Attic-Ventilation Strategy: We create a customized plan for your specific needs.
    • Complex Ventilation System: Consider reroofing with ridge vents and soffit vents for balanced airflow.
    • Cooling Load Calculation: We assess installed venting components.
    • Gable Vents Management: Block or incorporate existing gable vents into an effective strategy.
  2. Individual Approach: Each client receives personalized attention. We examine your building and tailor the optimal strategy. The goal? Keeping attic temperature close to outdoor air temperature for ideal circulation.
  3. Additional Services: Beyond ventilation improvements, we offer:
    • Removal of old vent items.
    • Shingle repairs.
    • Addressing unvented roofs.
    • Prompt installation of ridge and soffit vents to prevent future issues.

Remember, a well-ventilated attic ensures comfort, energy efficiency, and protection against mold and moisture!
