Ventilation Profile
Airport West Roofing & Weather Profile
What We See in Airport West
The majority of homes we assess for ventilation have either no mechanical extraction or inadequate extraction based on the original building permit rather than the actual thermal load of the roof. The BCA minimum has never been a high bar for comfort.
Why It Happens
The airflow pattern in a roof cavity is not simply 'in at the soffit, out at the ridge'. Thermal plumes, structural baffles from trusses, and the location of insulation batts relative to the soffit inlet all affect actual air movement. In some configurations, adding a ridge turbine without clearing the soffit pathway achieves very little.
How We Fix It
Where a warranty claim or performance question arises, we return and test the extraction performance with a smoke pencil introduced at the soffit inlet — it gives a clear visual indication of whether the cavity is pulling air through the system as designed.
