A good ventilation system is necessary to extend your roof’s life span. The right set of vents help protect your roof from premature deterioration while ensuring consistent comfort in your home. Trusted contractor Twin Cities Siding and Roofing shares the factors to consider when choosing the best roof vents for your home.
Local Humidity Levels
Your local climate and humidity levels determine the most suitable vent type that won’t cause a spike in your energy bill. Areas with more rainfall or near high-humidity environments may need motorized vent systems to remove high volumes of trapped moisture and heat in the attic. Alternatively, a typical vent system may work well for properties in dry areas with infrequent rain and heavy storms.
Roof Type and Design
The slope, materials and structural complexity of your roof can impact the effectiveness of your intake and exhaust vents. Expect your contractor to find the right ventilation system that will ensure efficient airflow in and out of the attic, helping to extend your roof’s lifespan and improve your property’s energy-saving capabilities. If you are planning to invest in a roof replacement, the pros will take the size of your attic and the state of its insulation into account.
Your Choice of Contractor
Choose a contractor with experience and knowledge in residential roofing systems. Entrust the design and installation to a team of experienced roofers with manufacturer certifications and a proven reputation within the community where you live.
