Re: roof ventilation question
Thanks so much. As I said our home is 64 ft in length and 28 ft wide. Going by what you said earlier, I need to place vents from one end to the other on the back side of the roof. If you don't mind one more question, about how many vents should I purchase? You have been so much help. Can't tell you ...

Re: roof ventilation question
I checked and yes there are hundred of holes in the vinyl on the soffits. So my question now is what would be the best kind of vents to put on the roof? I want to purchase them myself and have them installed because this doesn't sound like a do-it-yourself job.

It is a gas furnace an electric AC. The old furnace and it fan were inside the house and were removed. I th...

Re: roof ventilation question
I think that is exactly what happened. The roofing crew took them out because the contractor we had later said there was no venting and that was unusual. I'll look at the parts store. How difficult are the vents to install and will that possibly help with the heat I feel coming from the overhead in ...

roof ventilation question
We have a 1987 Homes of Merit Doublewide. It is a 28' X 64' Pine Manor. Several years ago, we put a new shingled roof on the home. We have also added vinyl siding over the existing siding. My question relates to the roof. When we had some work done on a deck we added, the contractor also helped me w...
