Roof Ventilation Channels

Provent may be installed prior to the soffit panel without fear of blow out.

Roof ventilation channels.

Improper attic ventilation prevents the free flow of air from the soffit to the exhaust vents which reduces insulation efficiencies and accelerates moisture problems. Durovent with baffle attic vent channelthe durovent attic ventilation system with built in baffle helps keep attic air moving. When the wind is blowing these ventilation channels allow air to move from the soffit vents to the ridge vents. The flanges are about 1 1 4 in.

Since the roof is framed with trusjoist i joists the baffles are easy to fabricate and install. The integrated baffle means that no blocking material is needed between the vent and the top plate. Improper attic ventilation prevents the free flow of air from the soffit to the exhaust vents which reduces insulation efficiencies and accelerates moisture problems. In a well ventilated attic cool air enters through the intake vents and carries warm moist air to the exhaust vents above.

The luan plywood stapled to the underside of the tji top flange leaves a clear 1 1 4 in. The provent attic ventilation channel provides an unobstructed air channel through your insulation. The provent rafter vent channel provides an unobstructed air channel through your insulation. Roofs often require ventilation channels directly under the roof sheathing either for a short section of the roof for example near the eaves or for the entire roof from soffit to ridge.

This prevents the warm air from building up and allows the snow and ice to melt evenly on the roof. The 23 1 2 in x 46 in ventilation system features polystyrene construction which is lightweight and moisture resistant. Provent may be installed prior to the soffit panel without fear of blow out.
