Ridge Vents & Roof Ventilation
At Klaus Larsen Roofing, we understand the unique roofing challenges faced by homeowners in New England. With cold, snowy winters and hot, humid summers, Connecticut, Massachusetts & Rhode Island homes need ventilation systems that perform in all seasons. A balanced intake and exhaust ventilation system allows fresh air to push hot, humid air out. This balance is crucial to keeping your home healthy and energy-efficient throughout the year.
We specialize in attic ventilation solutions that can reduce winter ice dams, lower summer cooling costs, and help prevent attic moisture and mold issues. Contact us today for a free inspection and estimate for roof ventilation in West Hartford, Boston, Providence, or nearby.
Most homeowners focus on keeping their roof leak-free, but ventilation is just as important. A properly ventilated attic can significantly reduce heating and cooling costs, extend the life of your roof, and make your home more comfortable year-round.
We provide professional installation of high-quality attic and roof ventilation systems tailored to your home.
Installed along the roof's peak, ridge vents allow warm air to escape naturally from the attic. Covered with shingles, they blend seamlessly into your roofline while maximizing exhaust efficiency.
Located under the roof eaves, soffit vents draw cooler, fresh air into the attic. They work in tandem with ridge vents to ensure a steady air flow.
Gable vents, mounted on the exterior walls of your attic, help increase airflow and can act as either intake or exhaust, depending on wind and temperature conditions.
DCI Products has been on the cutting edge of building product innovation for over 25 years. DCI is committed to designing, developing, and manufacturing the highest quality products to provide energy efficiency, cost effectiveness, easy installation, and durability.
The SmartVent from DCI is a very unique product, providing a tapered, under-shingle attic ventilation system that is highly functional in any weather. Once installed, intake and exhaust occurs within the actual shingle, so it can be used mid-roof, off-wall, shed-wall, off-peak, and on eaves, dormers and valleys. If your home has no soffit overhang, then SmartVent is a perfect solution.
SmartVent can also work in conjunction with pre-existing soffit ventilation to provide optimal results. This is a versatile solution to balancing the air flow of your roof and making your home energy efficient in the long term.
