Attic Ventilation - Atlas Insulation - Edmonton, Alberta

Ventilation Systems

All attics require a balance of air intake and outtake vents, as well as stops, baffles and chutes.

Air circulation is key to preventing costly damage to the home and attic caused by trapped moist air.

From standard venting, to solar powered, to wind powered, the options are plentiful.  Attic ventilation options and recommendations are available.

Sealing Air Leakage Points - Atlas Insulation - Edmonton, AB

Sealing Air Leakage Points

Aside from professional ventilation systems, the attic should be sealed air-tight.

Air leakage can result in heat loss from the home, increased humidity in the attic, attic rain, roof leaks, and critter infestation.

Probable air-leakage locations include: the attic hatch; wiring sites; exterior wall plates; bathroom exhaust pipes and vents; and furnace flues.

We can pinpoint areas of concern and intervene before any negative, long-term, lasting effects occur.
