    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.

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

            Is this the right vent to use in an area that gets lots of snow in the winter? Will it keep snow out?
            ByJul 28, 2025

            Answer This Question

            These can be used in areas that have snow, this model has an optional weather filter/screen for added protection

            By|Oct 17, 2025

              The best roof vents for areas with heavy snow is a gable vent, which will not be affected my roof snow loads. A link is below. https://www.homedepot.com/s/gable%20vents?NCNI-5 Mike

                  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.

                    Fitting this product in was seamless and the profile is just what I was looking for.
