More Information
Ventilation Outlets are used to allow moisture to escape from unventilated warm roofs. Moisture can get trapped within the roof during construction, if ventilation is not provided, heat from the sun can cause gases to expand, which in turn can cause blistering and tearing of the roof membrane.
