Proper Roof
Ventilation By: Frazier Roofs and Gutters https://frazierservices.com/
slide 2: Ventilation is extremely
important. When you fail to
keep up with it you are
subjecting yourself to the
consequences.
slide 3: What Does Ventilation Do Ventilation is defined as “a system
of intake and exhaust that creates a
flow of air.” Proper ventilation
requires establishing a sufficient
cool-airflow through the attic in the
summer and dry air in the winter.
slide 4: Bad Ventilation In The Summer: This causes heat to accumulate in
your attic space reaching
temperature levels of up to 140°F
on a 90°F day. This creates
moisture leading to mold growth.
Also this heat gets into your home
raising your utility bills.
slide 5: Bad Ventilation In The Winter: This causes your roof to sink
walls to warp and negatively
impact the health of your family
due to mold growth. Poor
ventilation in the winter also
causes ice dams to build up.
slide 6: Ventilation Maintenance: 1. Make sure you have your
ventilation checked periodically to
ensure that everything is functioning
properly. 2. Design is key. You should have a
vent-free intake equal or greater than
your net-free area measured in
square inches.3. Keep your vents clean. Dirt
buildup can lead to serious allergies
and health issues as all that dirt will be
circulating in the air inside your home
and getting into your lungs.
