Are turbines better than ridge vents?

Are turbines better than ridge vents?

While ridge vents win for their subtle appearance and functionality, turbine vents may be better in especially hot or humid climates where more dynamic airflow is necessary. If you are not sure which to use, consult a roof professional who can examine the needs of your home and draw up a venting plan for you.

Where should a turbine roof vent be installed?

Whirlybird® turbine vents should be located near the peak of the roof on the rear slope, exposed to the wind from all directions. When installing two, place each one ¼ of the total length of the roof peak from each end of the house.

Do whirlybirds really work?

The answer to the question “do whirlybirds work?” is yes. Whirlybirds work to remove hot air from roof voids, effectively ventilating the room or space below. However, whirlybirds are relatively dependant on airflow to function properly.

Where do you put whirlybirds?

Whirlybirds are generally positioned at the very top of a roof along the highest ridge line. This positioning allows whirlybirds to work most effectively, as hot air and moisture will naturally rise and accumulate at the highest point of a roof, where it can escape through the whirlybirds and in to the environment.
