Ventilation Profile
Upton Hill Roofing & Weather Profile
What We See in Upton Hill
In bayside and coastal suburbs, prevailing onshore winds are a consistent resource for wind-driven ventilation. Homes on these sites with adequate soffit intake vents and ridge whirlybirds can move significant air volumes through the roof cavity on windy days without any power input.
Why It Happens
Powered roof ventilators have a constant extraction rate independent of wind conditions — they're appropriate for climates with long still-weather periods or for large roof areas where turbine numbers would be impractical. For most Melbourne residential applications, quality turbines with low-threshold bearings are sufficient.
How We Fix It
On Colorbond roofs, turbine penetrations are done with a purpose-formed Colorbond-matched collar flashing that follows the profile of the sheet. Penetrating a Colorbond roof incorrectly causes water ingress at the screw perimeter and profile mismatch — both of which we avoid.
