Soffit vents are intake ventilation openings installed under the eaves of a roof. They allow fresh air to enter the attic space, working in conjunction with ridge vents or roof vents to maintain proper airflow. Soffit ventilation is essential for preventing heat and moisture buildup in roofing systems. In coastal climates like Vancouver, soffit vents help reduce the risk of mold growth and ice dam formation during winter. Proper installation ensures balanced ventilation and long-term roof performance.
