When it comes to air regulation, the attic is a completely separate space.
Your attic is where the insulation for your living space is. The temperature up in the attic isn’t regulated in the same way as the rest of your home. This means that your attic shouldn’t be as air-tight. It requires intake vents (in the soffits) and roof vents.
At its core, attic ventilation is the gentle movement of air inside the roof or attic space. Where cool air circulates in, pushing out the stale, warm air. Hot air rises and leaves through roof ventilation.
When there is too much moisture in the attic from poor ventilation. The wood structure of your roof and home become saturated and will start to cause mold. This mold will lead to health issues to those in the home.
When there is too much moisture in teh attic, wood can rot. When it rots it becomes weak and can collapse under the weight of snow or even theweight of the roof itself.
Attic Ventalation helps control moisture levels.
During the colder months, the heat produced within our home becomes trapped in the attic. Without proper ventilation, it condenses on the cold surfaces. Causing a humid and damp environment. Additionally, everyday activities such as showering, laundry, and cooking also create moisture. Excess moisture can cause premature damage to the surrounding roof and attic structures. Including mould and wood rot.
Mould will make the air in your home unhealthy to breathe. Rot will weaken the roof structure and can collapse under the weight of snow.
Attic Ventalation protects your home’s structural integrity.
Ensuring that your attic is dry and cool helps extend the longevity of your roof. As well as the structures that support it within the attic. An attic sweltering in a hot, damp, and humid environment suffers from many tell-tale signs. Such as cracked or curled shingles, mould growth, and damaged timbers.
Attic Ventalation helps regulate temperatures and insulation.
Home ventilation systems help regulate the temperature levels within the home. This includes attic ventilation.
If the attic is too hot, this trapped heat pushes back down into the living space. This creates a warm humid environment. This can make it particularly difficult to sleep during night time.
If the attic is too humid, the damp air becomes trapped in the insulation making it less effective.
Attic ventilation and proper airflow will help regulate these temperatures.
