A balanced attic ventilation system of 50% exhaust (high on the roof or at the peak) and 50% intake (in the soffit or low on the roof near the eave) helps to remove excessive heat and moisture from the attic. Ridge vents are a category of exhaust vents that blends in well with the roof line while providing uninterrupted exhaust across the ridge of a roof. RidgeHawk is a lightweight entangled-net ridge vent wrapped in a breathable fabric. It provides exceptional airflow while helping to keep weather, dust, and bugs out of the attic. It can be used on horizontal ridges as well as on diagonal hips making RidgeHawk a great candidate for most roofing projects.
