Ensuring you have Proper Roof Ventilation
Looking after your roof
A well cared for roof lasts much longer than a roof that is left to its own devices. By spotting problems early on you can save yourself a lot of heartache and extra cost from big problems. Your roof is responsible for taking the damage from everything that the elements can throw at it including wind, rain, sun and snow but it is also attacked by leaves, insects and other natural predators. Ineffective roofing can mean that any of these factors find their way into your attic and eventually your home and it is important you do what you can to prevent this from happening.
Small problems lead to big problems
The roof itself is one aspect of the home that is regularly overlooked by homeowners until there is an obvious leak or damage. The best way to prevent these leaks and damages is through a regular, professional maintenance check carried out by an experience roofer on your behalf. These checks are not as expensive as you might think and problems that area spotted early can be fixed before they become worse. One such problem that you should regularly have checked is that you have proper roof ventilation and that it is working effectively.
What is proper roof ventilation?
Proper roof ventilation doesnt consist of either an intake or an exhaust, proper roof ventilation should comprise of both of these important elements in order to create effect air circulation in and out of your home. Not only will this protect your roof and your house but it will also help control the amount of time you use your air conditioning, thus bringing down the price of your energy bills. There are a number of ways that proper roof ventilation can be achieved and each have their advantages and disadvantages. The best choice for your roof will depend on the size and shape of the roof, and the layout of surrounding trees, wires and other objects.
Creating proper roof ventilation
In order to create proper roof ventilation that adequately rotates air in and out of the house it is important to get the level of intake and expulsion just right. This should be done by a qualified professional who can work out the figures required and advise you of the best course of action. Without expert advice you may find that you have an incorrect flow of air, which can not only mean a very hot house in summer but it can also mean a moisture build up in your loft and eventually warped, split, cracked or generally damaged roofs.
Causes of moisture buildup in the attic
It isnt always the fault of the weather either. Washing machines, dryers and other household appliances as well as the occupants of the house all create their own moisture and without proper roof ventilation this moisture will build up on the inside of your roof. With a proper roof ventilation system a negative air pressure is created that sucks the warm air out of the loft replacing it with cool fresh air from outside preventing various types of damage associated with poor ventilation systems.

I received 4 of these darling Bistro Chairs on Tuesday and when I saw them I ran right upstairs and ordered 2 more chairs. They arrive today. Wow in only 2 days and free shipping on top of that. These chairs are perfect for the dining room of our beach house. When I first ordered the chairs a few weeks ago I wanted blue but after searching the entire web there were no blue ones available so I went with the red and I am so happy I did, fun color makes for a fun look. Pros: Fun, light weight, nice size for a small area, comfortable and very french looking.

Comfortable and stylish. The only downfall is the cushions could do with a Velcro strip to keep them in place because as soon as you move the back cushions fall down.

We have a small patio and have a number of the Sol 72 Outdoor pieces to help with storage, the thing I like about this piece, is that it doubles as seating. Big enough to hide some toys or gardening supplies, or even bbq tools to keep them out of the weather. Durable and handy!

Disappointed; though this set fits perfectly in my garden and is useable, delivery was delayed and upon construction we found numerous dents and scratches. We weren’t too concerned however a week or so later we noted rust appearing. We’ve had the set a couple of weeks only. First time using www.boisecloggers.com, unlikely to buy from them again. Such a shame.

Easy assembly, great bench. Wood definitely needs to be sealed for the rich look, I used a clear deck sealer that made it gorgeous, as we will be covering it and leaving it out in the elements, or as they recommend a hearty coating of furniture wax. Over all very pleased.

Wife I chose this style after much careful consideration it had the wood piece for behind the knees which makes it look nicer. I absolutely love the dark finish really looks good against trees and shade. Husband Directions were so so some points weren’t clear and took some thought to figure out. screws holes did not match the alignment

It’s beautiful but very small and it was difficult to put some greens inside it since they aren’t very deep.

Easy to build, good instructions and looks great. Really pleased with it so far - looks brill in my hallway and means the kids aren’t sprawled on the floor taking their shoes off every day :)

Great chairs but hardish to assemble - I had to use my own screws to make it work . The holes and the bolt and connector were not well engineered enough to assemble it .

Bought 4 of these for around our fire pit. Husband put them together in less than a hour and they are so comfortable.

So pleased with this. Delivery was straight forward. My husband assembled it easily in less than an hour. The kids are now tidying shoes away and no longer throwing them everywhere, causing a death trap assault course for daddy and me. It's also a great place to sit for story time. All for a great price too.

Beautiful for an accent wall. Not sure why larger vases are in the picture because all four that I ordered were miniature even though I wasn’t given an option to select a size. So unfortunately there much smaller than I wanted but still a nice touch next to my photos.

We love the bench and it was fairly easy to assemble. Unfortunately I saw same bench at Home Goods for $80.00 less after I purchased.
