Solar Ventilation
Proper attic ventilation systems allow a continual flow of outside air through the attic or home, helping to lower temperatures in the living space. It consists of a balance between air intake (at your eaves or soffits) and air exhaust (at or near your roof ridge). Many homes in Hawaii do not have proper ventilation. Why? Because most people are unaware that the lack of ventilation drastically increases the temperature of the living space and causes premature aging of the roof. Improper ventilation can cause attic heat to build in excess of 160°F. This super-heated air quickly penetrates the ceiling into the living area below. Probuilt Hawaii offers solar ventilation solutions commonly overlooked by most roofing contractors.
