What role do insulation baffles play in a ventilation system?
Last Updated 11 years ago
Insulation baffles (proper vents, vent chutes) are a major factor in insuring your intake ventilators are functioning. These baffles are placed in between the rafters in your attic to provide an air space between the intake and exhaust ventilators. We recommend you use a baffle in every rafter tail area when using continuous soffit vent . If baffles are not used, make sure that the insulation is pulled back away from the soffit vents.
