tigerwoodKhorns Posted March 26, 2019 Share Posted March 26, 2019 I am about to add insulation to my attic and need to install vent baffles. Here are some from the home depot, but a review from Arizona said that they melted in the sun in May. I am in Las Vegas so I need something much better. Any insulation contractors here? https://www.homedepot.com/p/Amerimax-Home-Products-41-in-x-22-in-Accuvent-Vinyl-Attic-Airway-and-Soffit-Vent-in-Black-ACCUVENT/202962730 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tigerwoodKhorns Posted March 26, 2019 Author Share Posted March 26, 2019 The vent holes are already there. I just need to put in a channel to get the air to the top of the insulation as I will be adding quite a bit of height to it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ceptorman Posted March 29, 2019 Share Posted March 29, 2019 If there aren't soffit vents, gable vents and ridge vents will work, like 7heavenly said. A power attic vent might be another route. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
