One of the most overlooked components of design and installation of architectural roofing systems, both in new construction and retrofit applications, is ventilation. A properly engineered ventilation system using a continuous ridge vent in conjunction with an under soffit intake will provide proper fresh air movement through the roofing system removing hot, stale air. Summer heat is released naturally, extending both the life and performance of the roof. During winter proper ventilation can assist in the control of condensation and other moisture problems such as rust and insulation deterioration.
Ridge ventilators manufactured by Metallic Products are in accordance with the highest design requirements and specifications.

40 years plus of experience in furnishing stationary, gravity-flow, continuous ridge ventilators has proven their efficient performance and lasting quality.
Lo-profile floating ridge vents are a low-profile, aesthetically pleasing and extremely efficient means of ventilating standing seam roofs. Each unit is manufactured in 10' lengths and can be installed as a single unit or can be butted together to form a continuous run. By lapping the furnished joint covers over the top of the butted joints in a continuous run, the vent has the appearance of a single unit.
When ordering please specify roof slope, roof system, paint system, and color.
