Attic Protection
StormStop™ ridge vent provides superior protection that stops snow, rain, sand and bugs from entering the attic. Fitted with our patented weather-blocker, this spun-bound material is 71% open and 29% closed. This technology allows the material's exterior surface to repel water so that it beads up and rolls out of vent, while the interior surface remains breathable to allow air and moisture to flow out. Don't confuse this unique material with vent filters, as it far superior in function and protection. Designed without an external baffle keeps ridge vent clog-free from pine straw and leaves. Durable and impact resistant, ridge vent is made of HDPE plastic to withstand hail damage and gun-nailable for fast and easy installation. Delivers the best protection and ventilation along with the most sleek design for a clean, neat and long-lasting roof appearance.
FlowThru ridge vent provides long-lasting protection that keeps air flowing thru the attic for a healthy home. FlowThru ridge vent ensures air is evenly distributed throughout the attic and at the roof's highest point to prevent hot, moist air pockets to keep a cool and dry attic. Designed without an external baffle keeps ridge vent clog-free from pine straw and leaves. Durable and impact resistant, ridge vent is made of HDPE plastic to withstand hail damage and gun-nailable for fast and easy installation. FlowThru ridge vent is ideal for drier climate regions that do not receive storm-driven rain or significant accumulations of snow fall. Delivers excellent ventilation and a sleek design for a clean, neat and long-lasting roof appearance.
AtticDefense ridge vent ensures dependable protection that provides continuous airflow throughout the attic. AtticDefense is a nylon-fiber mesh ridge vent that provides exceptional airflow. Designed to be the superior-choice among mesh ridge vents it's made of engineered nylon which feels sturdy and wire-like, versus more common soft mesh materials. It will not compress or flatten over time, nor will it breakdown and clog compared to naturally derived mesh materials that use coconut hulls and fabric covered vents. Compared to Quarrix's HDPE ridge vents, AtticDefense ridge vent is considered more flexible and lightweight, a value choice that delivers continuous ventilation for a cool and dry attic.
