Condensation, which may seem harmless at first glance, can eventually destroy even a tile roof. To prevent this, high-quality ventilation for the roof is necessary. It performs an important function: ensuring the removal of excess moisture from the roof covering and protecting the rafter system from decay.
What happens if the roof ventilation is poor or nonexistent?
- Moisture in the rafter elements: This can lead to the growth of fungi on wooden boards under the roof, which can be destructive in the future.
- Inability to protect from water: Poor ventilation will not protect against water, leading to the damage of metal structures and the formation of corrosion.
- Damage to the insulation layer: The insulation will not effectively perform its primary function—retaining heat. As a result, the indoor temperature will drop sharply.
- Excessive heat buildup on the roof: This problem is especially significant for soft roofs. If there is an attic, it will be nearly impossible to stay in that room during the summer.
- Increased humidity throughout the house: Insufficient ventilation will lead to high humidity levels throughout the entire house.
What happens with proper ventilation?
- Your home will always remain dry and cool.
- Maintaining the heat balance of the roof: Proper ventilation regulates the temperature under the roof. Cold air during the winter and excess heat in the summer are prevented. This helps the roof save energy and reduce heat loss.
- No mold or rot on the ceiling or walls.
- Preventing harmful microorganisms: In high humidity conditions, especially with poor ventilation, the risk of mold or moss growth increases. The ventilation system prevents these problems, maintaining the roof’s health.
- Longer lifespan: Ventilation protects the roof covering materials and extends their lifespan. With proper airflow, the roof covering and structure suffer less damage and can be used for a longer time.
