Roof Ventilator Supply and Installation
The benefits of Roof Ventilation
Roof ventilators, (also known as roof vents, attic vents, or whirly birds) are widely recognisable fixtures on Australian homes, as they are perfect for extracting hot and humid air from the roof cavity directly. The most immediate benefit of house roof ventilation is the home's interior being noticeably cooler on scorching days, without the need for expensive and energy churning air conditioning.
We offer supply and installation of roof ventilators on all common roofing surfaces, offering our professional recommendation regarding the model, quantity and roof vent installation points most suited to your roof.
Particularly for inland regions in the Upper Hunter Valley, the Central Coast and the Lake Macquarie region, prone to fierce summers and occasional heavy rainfall, roof ventilators can make a big difference to the comfort of your home.
In the colder months condensation forming on the underside of the roof surface can amount to a serious problem, as it runs down beams, collects on gyprock sheets, permeates exposed materials and even leads to mould growth. A properly installed roof ventilator will do little to remove heat from your house in winter on account of it being held in by the roof insulation. Instead, it will extract moisture and vapour from your roof cavity, protecting the insulation and other materials in the roof cavity and keeping your home dry and comfortable inside.
The warm, dark and stuffy conditions inside of most attics and roof cavities make daytime shelter to many domestic pests, such as mice, possums, birds, cockroaches, and many other insects. Proper roofing ventilation will help prevent the use of your roof space by pests, by lowering the temperature inside the roof, inhibiting the growth of mould, allowing constant flow of fresh air and, critically, permitting light directly into the roof cavity during the day.
