Questions & Answers

my two car garage gets very hot in summer. Builder only installed a ridge vent at top of roof line. Will installing this vent or possibly two vents reduce amount of heat that accumulates in attic therefore lowering the temp in my garage. thank you

1 Answer | 
Answer This Question

To effectively lower the temperature in your garage, you must first verify that your intake ventilation is at least equal to your total exhaust ventilation. Simply adding more exhaust vents will not be effective if the attic does not have enough intake air to balance the system.

    Can you use this as an intake vent near the bottom of the roof and mix with a wind turbine at the top of the roof as the exhaust?

    Answer This Question

    No, the Master Flow SSB960 Metal Slant-Back Roof Louver, as well as all other Master Flow roof louvers, is designed and rated strictly as an exhaust vent to let heat and moisture escape from the attic, not as a low-level intake vent. If you have any other questions regarding Master Flow products, please email MasterFlowTech@gaf.com

          Why do the louvers on front and sides angle inwards from top to bottom. This channels water into the cover as it flows down the sides.
          ByApr 13, 2026
          1 Answer | 
          Answer This Question

          This allows for proper airflow as the collar inside is the same height as the top opening and allows any water infiltration to flow out from the bottom of the hood.

            Does it have a screen that is fine enough to keep insects (specifically wasps and Asian lady beetles) out of my attic?
            ByApr 7, 2026
            1 Answer | 
            Answer This Question

            This model does not come with a screen. The design Helps resist weather and pest infiltration. The SSB960AWF has the optional weather- and ember-resistant screen for added protection.

              Answer This Question

              This material already has a baked-on finish. While painting is possible, we do not currently have a procedure for it.

                How many of these vents will I need to ventilate 400 ft² of my attic
                ByAug 19, 2025
                1 Answer | 
                Answer This Question

                For an attic space of 400 square feet, it appears two SSB960s will be required. Please ensure that you have an equal amount of intake ventilation. For more specific information regarding attic ventilation, you can use the GAF Ventilation Calculator on the GAF.com website.

                  I ordered these online as they were not available in the store and I did not want to do a ridge vent as I live in a hurricane zone. They shows up very quickly in nice boxes to the store and were not dinged at all no scratches they looked perfect. I love the dark black color and they have a great finish. I also ended up adding solar panels and they matched those colors almost perfectly. The install is easy, you basically cut a big circular hole and then waterproof and shingle. I did use aluminum nails to match which were kind of a pain. But I love love these vents and now my attic is definitely much cooler. I did 6 vents on a small 1000 sf house. This was better than many smaller vents in my opinion as the install was much easier and less labor. We installed as we redid the whole roof.

                  I give this product 3 stars because it is pretty thin material, easily dented and scratched when installing, not very heavy duty. The look is good and the it will function as intended.

                  Don't go by looks. These things are really tough. Hurricane Irma caused a tree limb at least 8 inches in diameter and 18 feet long to impact two of these vents on the back of my roof. Both were crushed. Only one leaked after the impact but not enough to destroy the ceiling with water. If I had the normal ridge vents and the same limb had hit them, I have no doubt That I would have had a huge long hole that would have ruined my house with water pouring in. I will replace them with the same product.

                    These Master Flow slant back roof vents definitely met my expectations. They are well made, sturdy, and the black finish looks great on the roof. Installation was straightforward, and they fit securely and provide excellent ventilation. The aluminum construction is a big plus since it is lightweight but still feels durable and built to withstand the weather. The carton of eight was also a great value for completing the entire project at once. Very happy with the quality, appearance, and performance. I would definitely purchase these again and recommend them to anyone needing reliable roof ventilation.
