Working in concert with a 100% GREEN Cap City Eco Radiant Barrier, attic air flow is very important. In all her infinite
wisdom Mother Nature can help cool your attic. Proper attic ventilation is vital to lowering A/C bills. Drawing cooler
outside air through your attic helps further reduce super heated attic air. That super heated attic air heats up your
insulation which in turn heats up your ceilings. Good airflow helps keep those temperatures lower.
Cap City Eco installs all types of attic ventilation. Gable vents, Turbine vents, Turtle Vents, Roof Ridge Vents and
Soffet Vents. We do not install powered fans or solar fans. We have not found a supplier that will guarantee solar fans
longer than a couple years. These units are prone to failure and cost more to replace than benefits received.
These are the different types of attic vents we sell and install. All of them use Mother Nature to work.
Naturally hot air rises so it flows through an attic with proper ventilation.
Many homes are built without proper attic air flow. We can cure that problem for you.
The three pictures show eave/soffit vents being installed. These allow cooler
outside air to enter into the attic. They are very important to allow cool air in.
Types of Attic Vents
 |
Ridge Vent at the top peak allows excellent air flow throughout the attic. |
 |
Gable Vent exhaust hot attic air from upper gable ends. |
 |
Turbine Vent spins pulling hot air out. Placed high on roof line near peak. |
 |
Turtle Vent again placed high on roof line and blend well with any roof. |
All of these vents are static vents that have zero operating costs and in combination with eave/soffit vents are very proficient at moving hot air.
