Venting is one of the most important parts of roofing in most modern houses and abutment vents certainly stand out as an elegant and easy-to-implement solution. ERoofing offers the G1105 Flash Vent, developed by Manthorpe, which is perfect for both established roofers and DIYers.
Why do I need roof venting?
Roof venting is important since it connects the roof void to the outside environment. The roof void is the part of the house between the ceiling and the roof. In most houses, there is an attic in the roof void. Without the constant flow of air into the roof void, the warm air in the roof void may form condensation.
This can rot wooden beams and ceilings and even potentially introduce mold into the house. Some forms of mold are extremely costly and difficult to permanently get rid of and may have serious health consequences on the occupants of a house.
Why should I use abutment vents?
Abutment vents are particularly useful for those wanting to improve poor ventilation in their roof voids but lack significant DIY experience. Abutment vents are installed where a pitched roof meets a straight wall and do not require specialised equipment to install.
The combination of a single product and an intricate design means that the G1105 Flash Vent can be rolled out easily over an abutment but can also be doubled up in both length and width to suit the needs of the roof.
Does the abutment vent look prominent or ugly?
The abutment vent’s mat-like structure makes it hug the tiles closely, leading to a low-profile vent that’ blends in with the roof. Unless you knew what you were looking for, the vent is not immediately apparent.
