roof vent
Ridge air outlet
A roof vent is an opening or device installed in a roof to allow air circulation, releasing heat, moisture, or gases from the space below.
Common types include ridge vents running along the roof peak, turbine vents that spin with wind, and box vents that sit flat.
Proper roof ventilation prevents moisture damage and reduces cooling costs: The attic was sweltering until we installed roof vents.
