Need more info? Contact us with any questions or requests. Buildings wider than about 30 feet from the edge of the outside wall to the junction of the roof and wall are usually too wide to use the Roof-2-Wall vent with. Our ridge vents were designed for residential and light commercial use. Our vents will not vent enough air to meet code requirements on buildings over 30 feet wide between the outside wall and the roof to wall junction. Please call Cor-A-Vent before using the Roof-2-Wall vent on buildings wider than 30 feet between the outside wall and the roof to wall junction. |
