Abstract
Understanding how these deficiencies create venting problems requires a basic knowledge of roof venting and how it functions. Installation and maintenance must also be considered to ensure functional steep-slope roof venting. Although condensation control in attics and cathedral ceilings rafter spaces is not the responsibility of the roofing contractor, WSRCA Steep Slope Roofing Committee has provided this bulletin to outline the concept for steep roof venting, its importance, code requirements, and holistic considerations that promote a functioning ventilation system.
