Clay/Concrete Tile Roof Ventilation

Improve the comfort & efficiency of your home with clay & concrete tile roof ventilation

If you want to make sure your home enjoys comfortable temperatures and lower energy costs throughout the year, then proper clay & concrete tile roof ventilation is a must. Like other roofing materials, clay and concrete tiles need proper ventilation in order to allow air circulation in the attic.

Without clay & concrete tile roof ventilation, warm, summer air in your attic will become trapped, causing extreme heat. While this might not seem like a problem at first, this hot air can cause problems not only to your attic, but the rest of your home as well. Often times, the ducts carrying the cool air provided by your air conditioner will pass through your hot attic, eventually making this cool air warm. By the time this air reaches the rest of your home, it will no longer be cold. This will serve to make your home uncomfortable and will force your HVAC system to work overtime to compensate for the lost temperature.

There can be other problems with a lack of roof ventilation too. Many roofing materials can develop problems due to the presence of extremely hot air beneath them that doesn’t necessarily match the temperature of the outdoors. Over time, this may lead to warping or other costly issues. If you want to ensure that your clay or concrete tile roof lasts as long as possible, then it is essential to make sure you have adequate roof ventilation. Contacting your local roofing contractor will ensure the problem is fixed fast and adequately.
