How to install roof turbine ventilator.

When you have figured out precisely where the vents will be installed place the neck of the turbine up against the roof inside the attic. As they spin these vents suck the air out of the container. Although more vent is generally better replacing a turbine vent with a standard flat vent is acceptable as long the vent is big enough for the square footage of the attic space. Lift the shingles covering the flashing of the existing turbine base to expose the mounting nail heads.

Nothing about the install is different. To install the vent the roofer slips the flange the metal lip of the vent under shingles at the upper part of the hole and rests the flange on top of the shingles at the down slope part of the hole. If your roof is not too steep and you have asphalt shingles this is a diy project. Continue by drilling a hole in the center of the marking through the decking felt and tiles.

Once again watch this video and imagine i m installing a turbine vent. Using your marker pen trace around the edges of the vent on the underside of the roof. Most owners pair the louvre vent with turbine vents to ensure proper ventilation. Should i install the vent myself or hire professionals to do it for me.

Use a pry bar to pull the mounting nails out of the roof sheathing. Flat roof vents have no moving parts to break or squeak but don t vent as much air as wind driven vents. Watch this video of me installing a bathroom vent fan hood.
