5 Types of Roof Vents & Energy Savings Info

As mentioned in our earlier post, Tips for ventilating Your Roof Space, an optimized ventilation system is needed to balance the temperature and moisture levels in your home’s attic space.

3 Reasons Why You Need A Proper Ventilation System

  1. your home will be more comfortable,
  2. you’ll decrease utility spending, and
  3. your roof will last longer, saving you money on roof repair or worse yet, complete replacement.

Who doesn’t like the sound of that?

But how much will a new roof vent cost?

Actually, you’ll find that most roof vents are reasonably priced—especially when you consider the energy-saving return on investment. When you’re ready to address home ventilation, here’s some helpful list of types of vents to help you make a decision.

  • Turbine/static/wind-driven roof vents (provide ventilation by spinning naturally with the wind)
  • Louver/static roof vents (deflect rain and insects while promoting air flow)
  • Soffit roof vents (positioned under eaves)
  • Gable roof vents (louvered vents placed on roof peaks)
  • Powered roof vent units (thermostat typically included)
