Why Invest in Ventilation Services?

 In Blog

Roof ventilation is often overlooked by homeowners, but if you’ve ever spotted mold or icicles in your attic, it’s likely because your roof is poorly ventilated.

Icicles could ultimately cause serious damage to your home, while mold could even cause health problems for you and your family.

These are the main reasons to pay close attention to the ventilation system in your home.

A well ventilated roof will allow hot and cold air through tiny gaps in your roof, while allowing new air to flow into the property. It’s barely noticeable on modern roofs, but plays a key role in the maintenance of your home.

This new air is perfect for regulating the temperature of a property. It’s particularly useful for keeping a house cool during the warm summer months, without having to be overly reliant on air conditioning. This can produce dramatic savings on your energy bills
