How to ventilate your roof the smart way

While swapping out a conservatory’s existing roof for a high performance EvaRoof replacement is most often done in the hope of insulating the living space better, we understand that ventilation is just as important. As crazy as it might sound, leaving room in your roof for the natural air to come through – if done smartly – does a whole lot of good for you and your property! Let’s explore how:

Roof vents: Eradicating the risk of stuffiness

The primary and easiest method of ensuring that your conservatory or orangery is well ventilated throughout the year, is by integrating a roof vent within your replacement roof. Luckily, this is an option we readily offer all our customers that opt for any EvaRoof in our range, reducing the risk of the space feeling stuffy. Atmospheres will be lighter, and you and guests will appreciate the welcome breeze.

It’s important to us that for homeowners choosing to embed a roof vent, the level of ventilation is easily controllable so as to not reduce energy efficiency or lose heat unless desired. This is what we mean when discussing how to best ventilate your roof the “smart” way, and what helps us achieve this is the fact that we engineer all roof vents using only the very best materials and mechanisms. You’ll always be able to let the air in only at times when it makes sense.

No more rot, no more decay, just a breath of fresh air!

It’s not usually common knowledge, but in reality, most solid and tiled roof options are required to be ventilated in some capacity, otherwise putting the construction at risk of rotting timbers, felt damage, and mould growth. Conservatory roofs without any ventilation soon end up becoming costlier in the long-run. Before you know it, you’ll be left needing yet another replacement. The EvaRoof team can help prevent this eventuality, keeping your roof in tip top shape 365 days a year.

A subtle addition that makes a big difference

A handy side-effect of having a roof vent integrated into your extension’s new replacement roof, is light. Conservatories shouldn’t suffer from a lack of natural light entry (85% of their construction consists of glazing after all), but if your orangery could do with a lighter and brighter atmosphere, a roof vent is a rather affordable addition that can have a big impact. Your mood will be lightened, and any family members much more likely to venture into the space.
