During the summer issues are caused by poor ventilation than any other reasons put together. Improper ventilation can raise the problems of indoor discomfort with excessive heat and moisture. Proper ventilation is important to regulate the moisture from everyday activities including washing, laundry and showering to avoid the accumulation of moisture in the upper recesses like the attic. Poor ventilation leads to a number of serious and expensive problems.

Rise in utility bills

Improper attic ventilation is the hidden culprit behind overworked air conditioners. It is difficult to keep the interiors cool and also leads to an increase in utility bills and also reduces the unit’s life.

Sagging decking

If the ventilation is not working the resulting moisture will seep into roof decking, and dissolve the adhesives which hold them together. This will further lead to sagging of the decking.

Formation of Rust

Poor ventilation also encourages rust to form on structural metal like nails and fasteners due to the presence of moisture.If the ventilation is not set right this can rust the bolts and nails to cause venting or even damage the plumbing straps.
