Performance. There is no comparison to the rigidity, thickness and design. As I slid these into position, the directed air flow was amazing having a nozzle effect, increasing velocity of air from soffit vent and directing it up toward the ridge vent.. It works. The price made me hesitate and Home Depot only sells online by the 70 pc. case. Having installed these now, I wouldn't hesitate to buy again. Superior.
Installation. . The competitor's products are thin, flimsy, and brittle copys. These stayed in place in my 24" on-center rafters. I used an air stapler with Arrow T50 3/8 x 3/8 crown staples .I used the divergent grind points that give a little twist and hold great. Go to Arrow's website for more on metals and point types available. Stapling into deck sheathing with a Porter-Cable air stapler only drove the staples the depth needed. It didn't punch thru foam baffles, just good firm hold. Sliding insulation into position at edge of top plate, the rafter vents are rigid keeping airspace between roof deck sheathing and insulation and didn't rip/tear or crush and I had R-30 thick batts shoving into that cramped space. This product maintains airflow from soffit vents as designed.
Features.. Owens-Corning rafter vents have an acordian portion that can be curved down to the top plate as a wind block. This keeps loose fill insulation from being blown back away from edges near soffit vents and when blowing new insulation into edges, it prevents the loose fill insulation from getting blown into soffit vent area plugging up the vents.
To recap, the rafter vents work great and do exactly what they are designed to do, protect and provide the airspace needed for inlet air from soffits.
I hope this helps you make an informed purchase.

The rafter bays I was insulating were from 1890, so none of them were the same width and none of them were standard 16" centers. I had to improvise but was able to do so fairly well with these. 1/2" staples for the install and I was done. Easy to trim as well with a good sharp razor.

My 15 year old daughter installed them..
A low pitch roof made it difficult, but she managed it and installed 18 of them in under 2 hours.
Some of them spilt, as to be expected, when stapling and curling them up, but she took a roll of tuck tape up the ladder and ran it along the stapled edge and on any cracks.

These work great and easily for rafter vents. But they are a little flimsy and do not spilt easily by folding them as per the instructions. You have to cut them with a razor knife or they will tear. Thus, 4 stars.

They work but are too flimsy and split very easily. I would prefer a more durable product.

After all cavities have been filled with AttiCat Expanding Blown-In Insulation, tapered wood plugs are used to plug insulation access holes. The plugs are 3 in. in diameter and can be used for both interior and exterior access holes. For most interior and exterior wall applications, the wood plugs should be recessed and sealed with caulk or commercially available non-shrink patching compound. Different patching compounds can be purchased for different types of wall construction material, including stucco. Additional patch material may be required to maintain vapor retarder integrity, e.g., tape, foil patches, etc.
Make your attic access energy efficient with the E-Z Hatch Deluxe R-42 Attic Access Door. It provides an air-tight, high-performance scuttle door that is more energy efficient than pull down ladders. The kit includes a wood frame, preinstalled trim, and an insulating door. It is R-50, triple-gasketed, pre-finished and fits into a 22.5 in. x 30.5 in. rough opening. New code requirements state that the attic access pull down ladder or access hatch must be insulated to the same level as the rest of the attic (minimum of R-30 to R-49). Pull down attic ladders no longer meet code unless insulated to minimum of R-30. E-Z hatch is the alternative. A step ladder provides attic access.
The Energy Guardian Attic Ladder Cover improves your home in three essential ways: (1) reduced utility costs, (2) comfort in all seasons, (3) improved indoor air quality. This industry-leading air seal eliminates drafts in winter and hot-spots in summer-lowering heating and cooling bills. It stops the contaminant pathway of attic dust, allergens, and insulation particles from entering your home. Quick to install and reliable, this is the complete "out-of-the-box" solution for your folding attic stairway/hatch: assembles in minutes and comes with a 20-year warranty. Ensure your home's consistent, long-term energy, comfort and indoor air quality solution.
