Roof Ventilation
At Zhe Industries, we recognize the critical role of attic ventilation in maintaining a healthy and energy-efficient home. As an Owens Corning® Certified Energy Expert® professional, we are committed to providing superior solutions for your attic ventilation needs.
Why Roof Ventilation Matters
Proper roof ventilation is critical for maintaining a balanced temperature within your home and preventing moisture-related problems. It offers several benefits that contribute to the overall health and efficiency of your living space:
- Temperature Control: A well-ventilated attic helps keep your home cooler in the summer and warmer in the winter by allowing excess heat to escape and fresh air to circulate.
- Moisture Management: Proper ventilation reduces moisture buildup, preventing mold growth and wood rot, which can compromise your home's structural integrity.
- Energy Efficiency: Enhancing your attic’s ventilation improves your home's overall energy efficiency, leading to lower heating and cooling costs.
- Roof Longevity: Good ventilation prevents ice dams and reduces stress on shingles, helping to extend the life of your roof.

Home Ventilation Features

Gable Vents
Gable vents are more than just a decorative feature; they are a vital component of your home's ventilation system, impacting aesthetics and energy efficiency.

Ridge Vents
Positioned along the roof's peak, they serve as a primary exit point for hot air.

Roof Vents
Electronic power roof vents are designed to expel hot, humid air from your attic or bathroom and facilitate fresh air circulation. Unlike traditional vents, electronic power vents use a motor to drive air movement actively, providing a more efficient and controlled ventilation process.
Ensuring Your Roof is Properly Ventilated
Here are a few signs that your home may need better ventilation:
- High Temperatures: If your attic is much hotter than the outside air on warm days, ventilation might be insufficient.
- Moisture Signs: Look for damp insulation or condensation on the roof underside, indicating high moisture levels.
Determining if your attic is properly ventilated involves checking for signs like excessive heat, high moisture levels, or condensation. A professional assessment by Zhe Industries can provide insights into your attic’s ventilation needs and recommend the best solutions for your home.
At Zhe Industries, we provide tailored solutions to ensure your home is adequately ventilated. Our team assesses your needs and recommends the best types of vents and configurations to optimize airflow and energy efficiency. Whether it’s intake vents, exhaust vents, or specialized solutions for finished attics, we have the expertise to enhance your home’s ventilation system.
I had a issue come up in my attic insulation a year after it was installed. I called the company and within a few business days the owner came out and a crew was there to fix it that same day at no cost. The issue turned out to be a recent service bulletin put out by the manufacturer.
Thank you Zhe Industries!
Dear Mr. Zhe,
My wife and I are writing to express our profound appreciation for the outstanding service provided by Zhe Industries LLC.
On February 21, 2025, you personally visited our home and conducted a thorough assessment of the insulation required to make it less drafty and more energy-efficient. By March 27, 2025, your installation team—comprising Brian E., Dave M., and Conner B.—exceeded all our expectations.
The team began by evacuating the old cellulose insulation, creating new access points in a hard-to-reach gable, and removing the outdated batting insulation. Once the attic was fully cleared, Brian E. meticulously inspected and sealed cracks around the registers and other unwanted openings. The team then disinfected the attic with RMR-141 RTU, Shockwave, and Recon Odor Counteractant. They followed this by installing radiant barriers where necessary and filling the entire attic with Owens Corning ProPink L77 Pink Fiberglass.
Their professionalism was evident throughout the process. The team arrived promptly at 8:00 a.m. on Thursday, completed the evacuation efficiently in under four hours, ensured a thorough cleanup, and returned the next day to finish installing the new fiberglass insulation. Their ability to communicate clearly and explain each step was particularly commendable.
Your team's dedication to excellence has left a lasting impression on us, and we would not hesitate to recommend Zhe Industries LLC for attic refreshes or new insulation projects.
We are thrilled with the results and confidently award you a 5/5 star rating for your exceptional service. Thank you for your commitment to excellence and for making this experience hassle-free.
Sincerely,
E. Rose
