Ventilation
Reduce heat and moisture buildup that can lead to ice damming, roof deterioration, and mold infestation through proper ventilation. Proper roof ventilation requires both exhaust and intake ventilation products.
Exhaust Vents
Exhaust vents, which are located near or on the ridgeline of the roof, allow air to leave the attic.
What type of exhaust ventilation do you currently have?
Your contractor may recommend a product such as†:
4-Foot Strip Heat & Moisture Ridge Vent
Intake Vents
Intake vents allow fresh air into the attic. Majority of homes in the US utilize some form of undereave (soffit) intake ventilation, however alternative products, such as Owens Corning’s VentSure® InFlow® Intake Vents†, may be necessary.

We strive to accurately reproduce all photographs of shingles in literature and for onscreen viewing. The roofing product colors you see are as accurate as technology allows. We suggest that you view a roofing display or several shingles to get a better idea of the actual color. To accurately judge your shingle and color choice, we recommend that you view it on an actual roof with a pitch similar to your own roof prior to making your final color selection.
† For non-asphaltic roofing materials, check with the manufacturer as to the suitability of using the indicated Synthetic Roof Underlayment. All Installations should follow the roofing manufacturer's application instructions.
