Not only can moist air become trapped and turn to mold and mildew but it can also cause your upstairs to maintain warm temperatures. When your home isn&#8217;t adequately ventilated, it&#8217;s common for warm air to become trapped since it doesn&#8217;t have an effective escape route.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>One of our customers was experiencing an unusual amount of warm air in her home. After <a href=\"https:\/\/www.guardianroofing.com\/schedule\/\">contacting Guardian Roofing &amp; Gutters<\/a>, our experts for an inspection, we went to Bernadette\u2019s home to find not only that her Shiplap roofing was out of code, but that she needed some significant ventilation upgrades.<\/p>\n<ul class=\"list-custom-style list-arrow-right circled list-red\">\n<li>House was incredibly hot in the summer<\/li>\n<li>Insulation filled the air cavity and created a lack of ventilation<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>If you suffer from warm temperatures in your home it could be from poor insulation.

What now?<\/h3>\n<p>Your home is warm and it is probably due to poor ventilation. Attic moisture builds up not just from weather and outside humidity but also from cooking, showering, washing the dishes, and any type of water usage.\u00a0 Without good ventilation, the summer sun can cause an unhealthy buildup of excess heat.\u00a0 Overheating combined with moisture can crack shingles and damage roof decking as well as cause mold. This means that the attic space not only needs a method for the heat and humidity to escape, but proper intake of fresh air as well. During the winter, efficient ventilation helps maintain a cool roofing system, mixing cool air from outside with attic air and melting less snow on the roof.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-31584 img-rounded img-responsive\" src=\"https:\/\/www.guardianroofing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/air-cavity-filled-768x1024.jpg\" alt=\"Filled Air Cavity\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.guardianroofing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/air-cavity-filled-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.guardianroofing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/air-cavity-filled-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/www.guardianroofing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/air-cavity-filled.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>See how we helped Bernadette<\/h3>\n<p>Bernadette\u2019s home was unusually warm,\u00a0 And decided it was time to call a professional. When we arrived at her home we could see that the Shiplap was out of code. Upon further inspection we noticed that The ventilation was inadequate , and the air cavity needed to ventilate the home was completely blocked by insulation. First, we installed a correct ventilation system allowing air to enter the roof cavity low on the home, and exhaust at the ridge. Then we installed cardboard baffles to compress the insulation and create an air space for air to travel through to ventilate the home and lower the temperature.<\/p>\n<div class=\"content-column col-md-6\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"img-rounded alignnone size-large wp-image-31585\" src=\"https:\/\/www.guardianroofing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/air-flow-baffles-768x1024.jpg\" alt=\"Air Flow Baffles\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.guardianroofing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/air-flow-baffles-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.guardianroofing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/air-flow-baffles-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/www.guardianroofing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/air-flow-baffles.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/div>\n<div class=\"content-column col-md-6\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"img-rounded alignnone size-large wp-image-31586\" src=\"https:\/\/www.guardianroofing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/baffled-ridge-vent-system-576x1024.jpg\" alt=\"Baffled Ridge Vent System\" width=\"576\" height=\"1024\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.guardianroofing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/baffled-ridge-vent-system-576x1024.jpg 576w, https:\/\/www.guardianroofing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/baffled-ridge-vent-system-169x300.jpg 169w, https:\/\/www.guardianroofing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/baffled-ridge-vent-system-768x1365.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.guardianroofing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/baffled-ridge-vent-system-864x1536.jpg 864w, https:\/\/www.guardianroofing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/baffled-ridge-vent-system.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 576px) 100vw, 576px\" \/><\/div>\n<p>Not only did we give Bernadette a new ventilation system and roofing deck, but we also installed brand new to the market, Owen\u2019s Corning Oakridge shingles in twilight black.
