Providing proper attic ventilation is one of… or rather the most important issue associated with this area, having huge impact on your house “health” and proper functionality (especially in cold climates).

As long as you have an attic (most likely if your house has a pitched roof and none or partial cathedral ceilings), it should be accessible, and periodically checked for any abnormalities.

Believe it or not – many of the home owners don’t even realize, that there’s an attic, and how important it is to maintain attic ventilation and control amount of moisture migrating into this area. Providing attic ventilation by using a combination of various types of attic / roof vents, plays a key role in preventing such problems as mold growth, and ice damming…

Attic air circulation / How much of that air circulating through your attic you really need…

You can find various attic ventilation calculators online, to give you explanation in numbers, and I’ll try to add a few words to it.

• Basic attic ventilation principal is to keep that unused section of our house as cool as possible – critical condition during the cold season – dividing amount of the roof upper and lower vents 50/50.

Some of us think absolutely opposite, and seal all of the attic ventilation ports, sometimes insulate roof decking (in unconditioned attics), assuming that such action will lower the utility bill. Unfortunately, by doing that, they are creating ideal attic mold growing environment (moist and warmer than exterior).

You can partially determine how good is your attic ventilation by examining roof surface during the winter (from the ground of course!). After some snow accumulates on a pitched roof surface, observe it over the next few days. If your roof remains snow covered, there’s a good chance that your attic ventilation, and attic floor insulation are adequate.

That might also be a proof that whatever heat is being transferred through the attic floor (house ceiling), and all other penetrations between the house – an attic area, has enough escape routes.

Any roof surface section, where snow starts disappearing, usually corresponds to a heat source in the attic, or pin-points attic part where the warm air has been trapped, instead of being vented to the exterior. With ambient temperature above freezing, such investigation might not be accurate, and you’ll need to open the attic hatch…

The ideal roof / attic ventilation would consists of combination of vents located in:

• upper section of the attic (ridge vents, turbine, box shaped or dome static vents, electric motor powered vents)
• vents installed along the bottom parts of the roof overhang, called intake, or soffit vents, hip vents, and / or
• gable vents

Roofs with no, or very small overhang might be able to utilize “vented drip edge” type vent.

Do not combine attic gable vents with roof soffit and ridge / upper roof vent systems – it might disturb attic ventilation / air circulation process.

How Many Attic Vents Your Roof Needs

Industry standards for proper attic ventilation recommend:

• For no vapor retarder type of attic insulation – no paper, plastic or aluminum layer between the attic floor and insulation layer – 1 sq. foot of ventilation for every 150 sq. feet of attic space divided 50 / 50 between the inlets and outlets.
• For vapor retarder equipped attic insulation (for example fiberglass blankets/bats with paper facing), you should have 1 sq. foot for every 300 sq. feet of attic space – assuming that everything else is perfect

Complexity of some roofs might prevent such installations, and compromise proper attic ventilation, but each of those “unique” designs would have to be examined and discussed separately. Lets assume, that we have as many venting ports as we should (based on simple formula above, and house exterior examination), and that everything was installed the way it should be, without cheating…

We can only see roof soffit vent cover, and expect to have an opening behind it. Once installed, it is hard to determine, if the cover has been secured directly over the cut-out in soffit board. The easiest way would be to access attic area, and check for a light shining through the soffit vents, you should be able to see it from access point.

However, in some cases, you might have to walk further from the attic entrance – be extremely careful if you decide to do that – use good source of light and watch your steps, because most of the attics have no floor boards installed, and you have to step on framing members.

If roof soffit vents are visible on exterior, but you can’t see any light shinning through them, there are moisture / condensation stains on the roof framing and / or decking, your attic ventilation could be suffering. Some things to expect:

• roof soffit vents are clogged with dust or several coats of paint (they should be cleaned if possible or replaced)
• roof soffit vents are sealed with attic floor insulation, so called – vent chutes / baffles correct this problem, and they should be installed in rafter / truss spaces corresponding to soffit vents on exterior, or in all spaces – they are cheap and more can only do better
• roof soffit vents might only exist on exterior – there’s no cut-outs underneath (have some new vents installed or correct current installation to improve attic ventilation).

Most common problem with gable and roof top vents is that they get clogged by bird nests or dust / lint, which compromises ventilation. If that happens, just clean it periodically and if wire screen is damaged – replace it.

Some people install screens on the inside (from the attic), covering cut-out in roof decking board…, it is easier and it does prevent rodents penetration, but it is still great spot for a bird nest.
