Smart Vents

Roof and Attic ventilation ports are an important component that often gets overlooked. Often times I see the underside of roof sheathing is black from lack of proper attic-roof ventilation.  Many older homes originally had a wood roof which had lots of openings for ventilation but when a new composition shingle roof gets put on ventilation ports are often ignored.  Some older style homes have no roof overhang or eaves which make traditional soffit vents difficult.  I was very happy to discover Smart Vents from DCI Products on a recent inspection.  They have a variety of ventilation products that look nice.

So don't neglect roof-attic ventilation, especially in cathederal ceilings or you might see this!
