15 Aug The Hidden Dangers of Poor Attic Ventilation on Your Roof
Your attic’s ventilation might not be something you think about often, but it plays a critical role in your roof’s health. In Peabody, improper ventilation can lead to a host of issues, from premature shingle failure to mold growth and even structural rot.
Ventilation helps regulate temperature and moisture levels. Without it, heat can build up in the summer, causing shingles to age faster, and moisture can accumulate in winter, leading to condensation and mold. Over time, this hidden problem can compromise your roof deck, insulation, and even your indoor air quality.
The good news is that improving ventilation is a straightforward process when handled by professionals. Options include ridge vents, soffit vents, and powered fans — all designed to keep air circulating properly.
A well-ventilated attic not only protects your roof but can also improve energy efficiency, reducing cooling costs in the summer and preventing ice dams in the winter.
