Ventilation for Split Level Dwellings

 
During the summer months a house absorbs incredible amounts of heat, more so if the roof is a dark colour.    

The total heatload within the house, whether by roof or walls, ends up at the uppermost level. The high heat load in the roof will eventually overload insulation and contribute to making comfort levels unbearable in the living area below.

A Condor Kinetic Roof Ventilator will reduce the pressure in the roof and allow the house to maintain better comfort levels.
Don't make the mistake of believing this doesn't happen to a tile roof, it does, especially if it is sarked. A tile roof is also slower to cool than a steel roof of an evening during the purge cycle.

Air-conditioned houses, either refrigerated or evaporative, benefit considerably by having a Condor Kinetic Roof Ventilator installed, to eliminate air conditioner overload and reduce power usage.

Ceiling registers are manually opened and closed on demand. This allows for efficient heat purging of an evening during summer and controls heat loss during winter months Electrically operated registers are also available.

This is a general indication as to what is required in respect to roof ventilator sizes using Condor technology.

There are variables to be considered, such as type of airconditioning and airconditioning ducting as well as colour and roof material

One appropriately sized roof ventilator is always more efficient that multiple smaller.
