What is SmartVent?

SmartVent is a patented roof and attic ventilation product that provides the best passive attic ventilation available. Using a unique design and installation method, SmartVent eliminates the problems and inefficiencies found in roof construction using ridge and soffit venting, namely inadequate vent openings in the soffit.

SmartVent is a tapered, under shingle plastic product designed for installation along the soffit edge of the roof or the facing edge of dormer rakes and goes virtually unnoticed. It allows air to flow freely through the 1" roof decking slit providing more than adequate soffit ventilation to maximize ridge vent effectiveness. This is extremely important since most ridge vent products require an equal amount of ventilation at the soffit in order to work properly. SmartVent, when used at both soffits, has a total NFA rating of 18 sq. in. (or 9 sq. in. on each side of a standard gable roof).

Save Energy in the Attic
Possibilities to save energy are all around your home. One of the most common areas in your home to lose or save energy is the attic.

Most houses with ridge vents do not have the proper soffit ventilation required because attic insulation blocks the soffit vents. SmartVent allows cooler air to enter under the shingle, through the 1" roof slit and out the ridge vent providing superior air flow and attic cooling.

 

SmartVent Specifications

Description: SmartVent Attic Intake Ventilation is a patented tapered, under-shingle attic intake vent designed to provide passive intake for use in situations where intake at the eaves, hips, and valley cannot be achieved. Once installed, SmartVent is unnoticeable from the ground. Our Fabric Weather Guard prevents snow and/or wind driven rain from entering the opening, yet allowing air to move freely from soffit to ridge. SmartVent is made of rigid corrugated plastic that tapers from 3/4” to 1/8”. SmartVent is nail-gunnable and can be easily cut with a standard utility knife for easy installation.
