Continuous Ridge Vents

Continuous Ridge Ventilator Options for Smarter Airflow Management for Your Steel Buildings

Optimize comfort and airflow inside your metal buildings with Metallic Products’ continuous ridge vents. Engineered to move fresh air through buildings of all sizes — while removing hot, stale and contaminated air — our continuous ridge ventilators offer year-round support. During warm summer months, they release heat naturally while keeping moisture under control. When winter temperatures strike, proper ventilation helps to manage condensation, keeping issues such as rust, mold, deteriorated insulation and product damage in check.

Our easy-to-install continuous ridge vents are customizable, available in colors and finishes to suit your aesthetic — and in a range of throat sizes to serve your unique ventilation needs. Get them with or without dampers, based on the amount of control your team needs over airflow.

For those in areas regularly impacted by high winds and extreme weather, we offer a continuous ridge vent featuring Florida product approval. This enhanced version of our popular product is designed to offer added protection and improved peace of mind. In addition, Metallic Products 12” and 9” continuous ridge vents have been evaluated and approved by the Texas Department of Insurance.
