Attic Ventilation Systems

Pond Roofing & Exteriors is your one stop shop for “everything roofing.” We install ridge vents, eave vents and attic fans to save you seasonal heating and cooling expenses and to protect the integrity of your home roofing system. Ventilation is important for preventing excess heat and moisture build-up in your attic, thus lowering the chance of mold growth in your attic and premature deterioration of your plywood and shingles.

The Importance of Ventilation

A roof ventilation system (combined with adequate attic insulation) prevents heat and moisture build-up in the attic. During the summer, trapped heat in the attic can bake your plywood and shingles from the inside while the sun beats them from the outside. Excessive attic heat damages roofing components and reduces shingle life.

During winter months, proper roof ventilation will help draw out excess moisture rising from the home into the attic, which if trapped, can cause mildew, mold and promote dry rot of decking. Poor attic ventilation in the winter also creates uneven roof temperatures. Consequently, melting and freezing snow can form ice dams which may block water from draining off the roof.

Natural Ventilation: Ridge Vent with Soffit Vents

Stay green and save energy by combining soffit vents (intake vents placed at the underside of the eave) with ridge ventilation (outlet vents at the peak of the roof).

As the wind flows across the roof top, a natural convection effect draws hot air out while pulling in cooler air. Natural or passive ventilation is considered to be the most efficient and sustainable method of expelling heat and moisture from the attic. A good roof ventilation system also promotes air circulation and a healthy environment inside the home.

AirVent Ventilation systems are among our favorite products. This video shows how the AirVent ShingleVent II ridge vent stacks up against its competition.

Motorized Ventilation: Attic Fan with Soffit Vents

An electric fan can be mounted near the top of the roof in combination with intake vents. We do not recommend using a motorized fan if the roof has existing ridge vents as this can counteract proper air circulation. Pond installs temperature- and humidity-controlled attic fans to keep hot, moist air circulating.

Customer Reviews

Excellent service. Any question I had was addressed in a friendly yet professional manner. I have used Pond before for replacement windows and siding and most recently for new roofing. I highly recommend them for their responsiveness and the high quality of their work.

Nancy P.

Easy communication with tons of photos and excellent job! Pond Roofing even came back to replace the color of the shingles to our satisfaction. The property was in McLean and they made me look great since my landlord client was very impressed. The swag cookies to our tenants was an added bonus. :-) Thanks so much!

Laura M.

Very fast initial response time and great customer service. Repair work was done (by prearrangement) while we had to be out of town and it looks great now that we are back. We have used Pond before and would call them first if we need roofing work in the future. Thanks!

Scott C.

Great communication, very professional repair crew. We have a new construction house that had some issues with vent seals after 10yrs and Pond fixed 8 different areas in one day--very happy with the work.

Ryan H.

I recently hired Pond Roofing to check out a leak. They did a great job coming in on time and to troubleshoot the issue. Their pricing was competitive and overall service was excellent. I’m very happy with their work.

Hassan W.

Pond Roofing was very responsive and knowledgeable about the condition of our roof. They delivered before the expected date and their work was impeccable. I cannot recommend working with Shanti enough.
