pulls air out of the attic through the vent. The baffle also deflects rain
and snow away from the attic.
Wind
and elements can blow in directly through the vent. Air entering the vent creates
pressure in the attic which prevents air and moisture from being pulled out.
Strong winds can actually pass through one side of the vent and out the other,
also preventing air and moisture from escaping.
Installed
across the length of the roof, Multi-Pitch FilterVent eliminates the need for
multiple roof vents that could detract from the appearance of your home.
