Homes with attics that have no ventilation or are poorly vented have no way for the heat to escape which can result in a buildup of heat that can damage your shingles from within. Edge Vents provide proper intake ventilation for homes with little or no overhang. It’s a roof-top installed, shingle-over intake vent. It can also be used to supplement existing soffit or underave vents as well. When your roof is properly vented the hot air can escape keeping your roof and attic cooler. Here you can see where our crew installed the edge vents during a complete roof replacement. The edge vents are not only more attractive, they’re much more effect.
