Without air gap between insulation and roof deck: With air gap between insulation and roof deck: air
condensation forms and the roof structure is damaged. escapes via ridge vents, leaving the roof structure
unaffected.
The air gap between the insulation and the roof deck must be 4 to 6 cm. Air should flow in from the bottom of the
roof (eaves) and out through the top of the roof (ridge). The air flow between the eaves and ridge vents must be
unobstructed (by insulation or roof beams) to ensure cross-flow ventilation.
The total required cross sectional area (CSA) of vent openings is a function of the insulated roof area (P) and the
slope of the roof.
Example: P = 70m2
SAMPLE Roof slope = 35°
ROOF CSA vent = 322 cm2
