Attic Ventilation Fairview | Attic Ventilation Fairview, TX
When a house, in Fairview, has been sufficiently ventilated, positive airflow is generated allowing the house to breathe and enhances the prevention of moisture buildup. Moisture buildup increases the chances of mold development, which is detrimental to the health of the home’s inhabitants. Therefore, the issue, of sufficient attic ventilation, is serious and should always be considered, especially when re-roofing your Fairview home. Have you been affected by a recent hail storm resulting in your insurance company providing you with a new roof? If so, have you considered having a home attic ventilation audit?
Efficient Home Solutions can check the entire attic space for proper ventilation. Improper ventilation, coupled with normal household daily activities, can inflict havoc on an attic and roof. Add in the heat from the average Fairview summer, resulting in substantial heat buildup in the attic promotes premature aging and cracking of wood and roofing materials. This could effectively shorten roof life of your Fairview home. If you’re looking for maximum roof protection, a well-ventilated attic is the key. Additionally, proper ventilation the prevention of an overheated attic prevents the spill over of unwanted heat down through the attic floor into the living area, even if the attic is insulated. During the winter, the concern is moisture generated from showers, laundry, dishwashing and cooking resulting in possible damage. The damage can occur in insulation, rafters, wood deck, underlayment and shingles. Sufficient ventilation assists in the prevention of moisture condensing on these items. Moisture-soaked insulation becomes ineffective, thus resulting in excess energy usage. Condensation on wood leads to rotting and pricey repairs. These are just the most important reasons for proper ventilation, but other reasons should be considered, for your Fairview home.
- Excess attic heat can cause premature shingle failure and possibly invalidate shingle warranty.
- Excess moisture in the home can result in mildew, drywall damage, peeling paint, and warped siding.

We recommend vents along the eaves and rooftop of your home to create a continual flow of cool dry air for protection of your home. These vents are standard on most new homes, but are often too few and a sufficient assessment will determine how many are needed. To allow cool, dry air to enter the attic at the lowest point, intake vents or soffit vents are installed along the eaves of the house. The air is then pulled out at the highest point of the roof by exhaust vents. Wind turbines function by using the natural force of the slightest wind and/or air pressure from inside the attic to spin the air turbine, thus creating a chimney effect venting out the stale, hot, humid air. A low-cost, effective option are turbine vents. Turbine vents very effective in removing heat from an attic. Solar fans and electric fans are also extremely effective.
