Balanced Ventilation

Effective attic ventilation requires balanced intake (soffit vents) and exhaust (roof vents). Without enough intake, exhaust vents pull conditioned air from the house instead of hot attic air.

Signs of Poor Ventilation

Ice dams in winter, excessive attic heat in summer, curling shingles, and mold growth on roof sheathing all point to inadequate ventilation.
