DCSM Ridge Vent for Metal Roofing Systems
|
|
Continuous ridge vents are used for attic ventilation and specifically designed for metal roofing systems. On a slope roof an opening is cut out along the ridge line where both slopes meet to allow hot air to escape from the attic space as hot air rises to the highest point. |

alloy coating that offers greater corrosive resistance, higher temperature
oxidation resistance, and higher heat reflectivity than standard galvanized
steel.
*Kynar 500 is a premium fluorocarbon coating with full strength Kynar 500 resin. This affords maximum exterior durability due to its outstanding resistance to ultraviolet radiation. These are the highest quality finishes available.
