RISING HEAT AND TRAPPED MOISTURE CAN CAUSE MAJOR PROBLEMS

In your basic science class, you learn hot air rises. As air is heated, it expands and becomes less dense, and like oil in water, will start to float to the top. In your home, the attic is the highest point in the house, so all that hot air gathers there and becomes trapped. Without proper ventilation, the temperature inside of an attic can reach 100 degrees or more.

The heat and moisture in the air can be very damaging and cause your roof to prematurely deteriorate taking years of life off the roof of your home. Proper Attic Ventilation allows the heat and moisture to escape instead of getting trapped in your attic and protects, your roof, and everything it is covering, including your home, and everything inside of it, including your family.
