  • Strip Vent is an under-plywood, top-of-rafter vent easily installed during the construction of an addition or a new home. The Strip Vent provides adequate ventilation in the spaces to either side of the vent placement.

  • It is a required vent product when your soffit to ridge air flow is blocked by a skylight or dormer. Strip Vent easily allows air movement in those trapped areas.
  • It eliminates the need to drill holes in the rafters to ventilate areas trapped by construction supports. Use it in areas otherwise unventilated and considered problem areas. It is very versatile and can be used on wall surfaces between siding and wall sheathing, allowing air to move between those areas.

  • Strip Vents are made of polyethylene plastic that is 2.75” wide X 36” long for maximum on the job installation flexibility. Strip vents come in a variety of thickness to meet your needs. Strip Vents allow air to travel in all directions through the built-in corrugated air channels and acts as a rain and condensate screen allowing moisture to drain and evaporate behind the cedar and other exterior wall panels.
