Ridge Vent vs Box Vents in Idaho

Both ridge vents and box vents can work — what matters is balanced intake and exhaust. A great exhaust vent with no intake still fails.

Ridge vents

• Even exhaust across the peak.
• Clean look.
• Works best with good soffit intake.

Box vents

• Useful when ridge vent isn’t possible.
• Can be added in targeted areas.
• More roof penetrations.
