In the winter, you may have considered covering your roof vents for what some people think would be improved insulation.

Well, this is not something you want to do! It’s essential especially during the cold season to have those roof vents open.

At all times of the year, the roof needs to be able to vent that excess heat and moisture, or you will have a great deal of mold growth and problems with pests. It doesn’t matter that you have that heating system working all the time, you need to make sure that the roof is always remaining vented so that the roof also has even temperatures regularly. If you were to close the vents altogether, the attic space would be far too warm. The even temperatures of the roof help to prevent ice-dams. Those are damaging to your roof as the water will freeze underneath shingles and you might be dealing with a truly expensive roof repair. You might be worried that your heating energy from your furnace is escaping straight through the roof, but you don’t have to worry about that so long as you have proper roofing ventilation. If you do have any issues with your heating escaping through the ceilings to the roof, the proper fix for this is to add additional insulation to your attic space. Trust me, it’s never the answer to block your roof vents, or you will be facing some issues that are not going to be pleasant. I personally had a family member try to block his roof vents, and he experiences all kinds of damages to his roof in the winter season, and he also had mold growth in the attic space.
