Roof Ventilation Optimized to Your Home
A New Roof Installed With Proper Ventilation Will Last Decades
Victory Home Remodeling is the leading residential roofing contractor in New Jersey, and when we install a new roof or reroof a home, we ensure that the ventilation system is optimized for that particular roof. Our team can also inspect a roof ventilation system to ensure that it is adequate. Proper roofing ventilation is an often misunderstood and underappreciated aspect of a roof, and there are many roofing companies that will just install new shingles and flashing without giving it much consideration. When you hire us to replace an existing roof or install a new roof, you can depend on us to ensure that your ventilation system protects your roof and makes your home more energy efficient.
Proper Roof Ventilation With Your New Roof
When you hire a roofing company to reroof your home, it’s imperative to ensure that it will assess your roof ventilation and make the necessary adjustments if applicable. Which vents you need, where you need them, and how many are required depends very much on the construction of your home. But what also matters is the roofing material being installed and the manufacturer’s specifications for that product. The reason this is so important is that it matters for the roofing material warranty. It also matters in terms of the long-term longevity of your new roof, and it matters in regard to the energy efficiency of your home and therefore how much it costs to heat and cool on a month-to-month basis.
Here are more details about how proper roof ventilation helps your home:
Extending the Roof's Lifespan
Proper roof ventilation plays a crucial role in extending the lifespan of your roof. By allowing heat and moisture to escape, it prevents the premature aging of roofing materials. Without adequate ventilation, shingles can become brittle, leading to cracks and other damage that necessitates early replacement.
Preventing Mold and Mildew
Moisture accumulation in the attic can lead to mold and mildew, which pose significant health risks to your household. A well-ventilated roof reduces the chances of mold growth by maintaining a dry environment, safeguarding both your home's structure and your family's health.
Enhancing Energy Efficiency
Roof ventilation significantly enhances the energy efficiency of your home. By expelling hot air in the summer and preventing heat buildup, your HVAC system doesn't have to work as hard to maintain a comfortable indoor temperature. This leads to lower energy bills and a more environmentally friendly home.
Reducing Indoor Temperature Extremes
Effective ventilation helps in maintaining consistent indoor temperatures throughout the year. In the summer, it keeps your home cooler by releasing trapped hot air, and in the winter, it prevents the formation of ice dams that can lead to water damage. This results in a more comfortable living environment and protects your roof from seasonal damage.
Boosting Overall Home Comfort
Beyond just protecting your roof, proper ventilation contributes to the overall comfort of your home. By ensuring that your attic stays cool and dry, you can avoid the stuffiness and potential for unpleasant odors that come with poor ventilation.
The Problems With Poor Roof Ventilation
A roof ventilation system comprises a series of intakes and exhausts that ensure that air is circulated, which has a number of benefits. It safeguards against hot air being trapped in the attic, which makes your home less energy efficient. Inadequate circulation also means more moisture, which can make your home more prone to mold and mildew but also damp insulation. The lack of circulation also affects the roof itself. During the hot months, it can cause shingles and other aspects of your roof to wear down quicker than they otherwise would, and during winter, it makes the roof more prone to ice dams. Snow melts on the higher and warmer area of the roof and refreezes on the lower and colder area.

Different Types of Roof Vents
There are many different types of roof vents, and which vents are ideal for your roof ventilation depends on the structure of the house and the roofing material used. At Victory, we specialize in all manner of roof vents, and the three most common are gable vents, soffit vents, and turbine vents.
Ridge Vents
Ridge vents are installed at the roof peak and are often the most important vent in any passive ventilation system. Hot air rises and escapes through these vents, which are typically protected by a layer of shingles.
Gable Vents
Gable vents are typically installed near the top of a gable end. Depending on the temperature and movement of air, this type of vent either allows hot air to exit the attic or fresh air to enter it.
Soffit Vents
Soffit vents are installed in the soffits, which run parallel to the eaves. They’re typically grilles that allow cooler air into the attic as the warmer air exits through the ridge vents.
Ensure the Longevity of Your New Roof
The best architectural shingles have a lifespan expectancy of about 30 years, which makes them an excellent value. But proper roof ventilation is integral to your roofing materials lasting for decades, which is why it’s so important to ensure that your new roof is being installed the right way. When you hire Victory, you do so with the confidence that every aspect of your roof will be installed with precision.
