The Importance of Attic Ventilation for Your Roofing System and How Owens Corning® Inflow and Ridge Vents Can Help

Why Attic Ventilation is Essential

Regulates Temperature

Proper attic ventilation plays a key role in regulating the temperature of your attic space. Clear Choice Construction, an Owens Corning® Preferred Contractor, ensures your attic is properly ventilated to allow hot air to escape, preventing excessive heat buildup. This reduces strain on your cooling system and boosts energy efficiency. With well-ventilated attic spaces, your home stays cooler in summer and warmer in winter for a more comfortable living environment.

Prevents Moisture Issues

Moisture buildup in the attic can lead to serious problems, such as mold growth, wood rot, and damage to insulation. Effective ventilation allows humid air to escape, preventing condensation and moisture accumulation that can compromise your roof’s structural integrity and lead to costly repairs.

Improves Energy Efficiency

Proper attic ventilation contributes to a more energy-efficient home by reducing the workload on your HVAC system. With consistent airflow, indoor temperatures remain stable, potentially lowering your energy bills and enhancing overall comfort.

How Owens Corning® Inflow and Ridge Vents Enhance Attic Ventilation

Owens Corning® Ridge Vents

• Effective Air Exhaust: Ridge vents are installed along the peak of your roof to allow hot, stale air to escape from the attic. As warm air naturally rises, it exits through the ridge vent, creating a continuous flow of ventilation that helps maintain a cooler attic temperature.
• Enhanced Efficiency: When used in tandem with Inflow Vents, Ridge Vents provide a comprehensive ventilation solution. This combination ensures your attic space remains properly ventilated, reducing heat buildup and preventing moisture problems.
• Low-Profile Design: Owens Corning® Ridge Vents feature a low-profile design that complements your roof’s aesthetic while delivering superior ventilation performance. Their unobtrusive appearance blends seamlessly with your roofline, ensuring effective ventilation without sacrificing style.
