Proper Attic Ventilation

Attic ventilation is one of the most widely publicized yet misunderstood concepts in the roofing industry. As a result, many attics fail to have proper ventilation or may not be vented at all. This is unfortunate because attic ventilation, when required, is an important component of a quality roof system.

Cathedral Ceilings

Homeowners and designers often desire cathedral or vaulted ceilings because of their aesthetic appeal and added height to a given space. But if a home is located in a heating climate zone – where a building's interior generally is heated for a longer portion of the year than it is cooled – problems such as ice damming may arise because cathedral ceiling roof systems are difficult to ventilate. However, there are ways to achieve proper ventilation and minimize ice dams' effects.
