ROOF VENTS: OPERATION AND IMPORTANCE

Roof vents play a crucial role in regulating the temperature and humidity inside the attic, especially in areas like Montreal where climates vary significantly. These devices create a constant flow of air that helps remove warm, humid air from the attic, reducing the risk of condensation and mold growth. There are several types of roof vents, including static vents, turbine vents, and solar-powered vents. Static vents, such as ridge and soffit vents, operate without moving parts and use natural convection to circulate air. Turbines, on the other hand, use wind to increase air circulation, while solar-powered vents feature solar-powered fans to improve ventilation efficiency. Roof vent installation should be done by professionals to ensure they are properly positioned and sized based on the size and configuration of your roof. Proper ventilation can not only extend the life of your roof, but also improve the indoor comfort and energy efficiency of your home.
