Attic Venting Experts: The Key to a Healthier Home

One of the most overlooked keys to energy efficiency in a home is proper attic venting. When your attic is properly vented it will keep your house cool all summer long and warm in the cold Wisconsin winters. Not only can you improve energy efficiency, you can also extend the life of your roof.

Understanding Attic Venting

Attics need to be properly vented to prevent moisture buildup, heat accumulation, and potential damage to the structure of your roof. When an attic is vented, you are allowing air to circulate and helps with regulating temperatures. In doing so, it can reduce the strain on your heating and air conditioning systems and prevent mildew formation in the attic. It can also extend the lifespan of the materials on your roof – saving you money in the long run.

The Risks of DIY Attic Venting

Some homeowners may attempt to handle attic venting themselves to save money. But more than likely, it’ll cost them. There are many risks associated with DIY attic venting including improper installation, incorrect calculations, violating building codes, insufficient insulation and sealing. Additionally, there are personal safety hazards like being exposed to hazardous materials or mold. Additionally, if you don’t hire an expert, you could void warranties on roofing materials and ventilation products.
