Attic Ventilation by Lone Star

Modern homes are more air tight due to improved insulation, efficient windows and weatherized doors. This makes proper attic ventilation more important than ever.

As a result of inadequate ventilation attic heat builds up, increases your cooling costs and causes roof shingles to deteriorate. In addition, moisture rises and encourage mold and mildew. The result is lower air quality, wood rot and deterioration of insulation R-value.

The goal of quality ventilation is to create airflow throughout attic. Lone Star insulation creates a ventilation system with intakes that draw in air below and with exhausts for hot air at the top. Lone Star can help you determine how much ventilation is right for your attic.
