How to insulate an attic ceiling with no soffit vent.
Insulating attic with gable vents.
Static vents often protrude from roofline thanks to.
For the same reason insulation shouldn t touch the roof s underside.
Never cover attic soffit vents with insulation use rafter vents and soffit vents to maintain airflow.
Covering up the soffit vents with loose fill or batts which can happen if you stuff insulation along the eaves is a huge no no.
However if your attic has blocked soffit vents and is not well sealed from the rest of the house attic fans will suck cool conditioned air up out of the house and into the attic.
Attic fans are intended to cool hot attics by drawing in cooler outside air from attic vents soffit and gable and pushing hot air to the outside.
The airflow from the soffits to the ridge vent keeps the roof cool and prevents ice dams and the material will block that flow.
Soffit vents sit underneath the eaves of the roof of a house to allow air circulation into the attic.
