Gable Vents

Gable Vents, also referred to as Gable Louvers are a great option to add air flow to your attics ventilation system.  These are typically installed towards the upper section of the outside walls gable end. This type of venting system is used to keep air flowing from one end of the attic to the other, but in most cases is used with soffit / eave vents for the intake and also in conjunction with a ridge vent for your exhaust. As most professionals know, it is extremely important to have a properly functioning attic ventilation system.  This is needed to reduce the heat load in the warmer months and the stagnant moisture in the cooler months.  Excess heat in the attic will put extra pressure on your homes cooling system and can also potentially cause structural and shingle damage.  If the moist air in the cooler months is not removed, this can result in the growth of mold and mildew.  The growth of this in the attic can pose health problems to the homes occupants and can also be extremely expensive and time consuming to remove.
