| One of the most
overlooked components of design and installation of
architectural roofing systems, both in new construction and
retro-fit applications, is ventilation. A properly engineered
ventilation system using a continuous ridge vent in
conjunction with an under soffit intake will provide proper
fresh air movement through the roofing system, removing hot,
stale air. Summer heat is released naturally, extending both
the life and performance of the roof. During winter, proper
ventilation can assist in the control of condensation and
other moisture problems such as rust and insulation
deterioration.
Ridge ventilators manufactured by
Metallic Products are in accordance with the highest design
requirements and specifications. |
25 plus years of experience in
furnishing stationary, gravity flow, continuous ridge
ventilators has proven their efficient performance and lasting
quality.
Lo-profile floating ridge vents
are a low-profile, aesthetically pleasing and extremely
efficient means of ventilating standing seam roofs. Each unit
is manufactured in 10' lengths and can be installed as a
single unit or can be butted together to form a continuous
run. By lapping the furnished joint covers over the top of the
butted joints in a continuous run, the vent has the apperance
of a single unit.
When ordering, please specify roof
slope, roof system, paint system and color. |
