Choosing roof ventilation that moves air through the roof
Roof ventilation works when air can get in low and out high. Intake vents near the eaves let fresher air into the roof space, and exhaust vents near the ridge let hot, moist air out. Most roofs need both to keep air moving.
For intake, the Proctor over fascia vents come in 10 mm and 25 mm, and eave vents and weatherproof louvre vents suit brick and eave openings. For exhaust along the ridge, the Proctor ridge vent comes in 2000 mm lengths.
Wind driven vents spin in the breeze and draw air out without power. The CSR Windmaster 300 mm in Colorbond or mill finish and the Supa Vent are grouped under whirlybirds. If you want a fan that runs without wiring, the Bradford SolarXVENT solar roof vent uses its own solar panel.
Static vents have no moving parts. The Omega roof exhaust vent, the Roof Valve static ventilator and the low profile roof vent in 150 and 200 mm all sit on the roof. The Omega corrugated square roof vent takes bathroom exhaust out through a corrugated roof on a 6 inch duct. Flexible foil duct in 3 m and 6 m lengths connects a fan to the vent.
Building in a bushfire area? The Proctor ridge and over fascia vents and the Bradford Maestro 300 mm come in BAL versions, with BAL in the product name. Check the rating on each listing against your site. For more detail, read our handbook to roof vents for corrugated metal roofs.
Roof ventilation FAQs
Do I need eave vents as well as roof vents?
Usually, yes. An exhaust vent pulls air out, and an intake at the eaves lets air in to replace it. Without intake, the roof space ventilates poorly.
Which roof vents are BAL rated?
The products with BAL in the name: the Proctor RV10 BAL ridge vent, the FV10 and FV25 BAL over fascia vents and the Bradford Maestro BAL 300 mm.
Do whirlybirds need electricity?
No. The wind turns the head. The SolarXVENT also needs no house wiring, because its fan runs off its own solar panel.
Can roof vents be delivered outside Victoria?
Most items here can be couriered Australia-wide at the rate checkout shows. A few are pickup or Victorian delivery only, and checkout tells you which.
