Hip & Ridge Vent for Tile-Shaped Roofs
Universal Water Dam Features:
When TileVent and the Universal Water Dam are used together they allow for 22 square inches of net free area per lineal foot of ridge or hip.
In severe weather regions where high wind and driven rain are prevalent, the Universal Water Dam must be used on all hip and ridge applications. With hip applications, you must not cut the hip open at least two feet top and bottom of hip. Universal Water Dam must be used with TileVent Ridge Vent.
