When it comes to maintaining a durable and long-lasting roof, proper ventilation is often overlooked, yet it's one of the most critical components of any roofing system. Without adequate ventilation, not only can the performance of your roof be compromised, but you might also risk voiding your shingle manufacturer's warranty.
When your home’s roof falls into disrepair, you may notice immediate or gradual increases in your monthly energy bills during both summer and winter seasons. An aging and damaged roof can waste energy in numerous ways, all of them leading to higher monthly bills.
Attic insulation and ventilation may not sound like important parts of your roof system, but these two features directly affect how your roof functions and performs in a variety of situations. The ventilation and insulation beneath your roof’s surface affect both cold weather performance and hot weather performance, as well as what happens to your roof in high humidity.
