What is loft ventilation?

Most pitched roofs are ventilated at the eaves, sometimes with high-level vents as well. Insulation pushed into the eaves can block that path, which is why we fit ventilation trays. More about loft ventilation.

Questions about loft ventilation in Fort William

Can you take on work in Fort William?

My bathroom fan vents into the loft. Is that a problem?

Yes. It pumps warm, wet air straight into the coldest part of the house. The duct should run to outside through a vent tile, soffit or wall.

Will extra vents make my house colder?

No. The vents ventilate the loft above the insulation, not the rooms below.
