Overview

VentSure® 4-Foot Strip Heat & Moisture Ridge Vents work with VentSure® intake vents and/or VentSure® InFlow® intake vents to help improve air flow through the attic. They are flexible enough to conform to virtually any roof slope and have a unique baffle design and Weather PROtector® moisture barrier to help provide outstanding performance.

  • Outstanding performance – net free vent area** of 18 sq. in***. per lineal foot
  • Unique design – flat baffle improves air flow by keeping leaves, pine needles or similar debris from impacting the performance of the vent
  • Excellent versatility – patent-pending corrugated ridge design and alignment tabs allow for additional flexibility and strength to accommodate virtually any roof pitch, resulting in a strong uniform ridgeline
  • Roof durability – proper ventilation helps maximize the performance of the entire roof system
As a key component of a VentSure® Balanced Air Ventilation System, the VentSure® InFlow® Vent is an essential part of the Total Protection Roofing System®^.

Ventilation Requirements

In order to create a consistent flow of cool, dry air through your attic, you need to make sure the air has a way to come in and go out: intake and exhaust. It’s important there is a balance between the intake and exhaust ventilation to help ensure air flows smoothly and efficiently.
