attic vent
Gable air outlet
An attic vent is an opening in a roof or gable that allows air circulation in the attic space.
Proper ventilation prevents moisture buildup, reduces heat in summer, and extends roof life.
Common types include ridge vents along the roof peak, soffit vents under the eaves, and gable vents on end walls: The inspector recommended adding attic vents to prevent ice dams.
