Theres a topic on chat about this, and i,ve added some photos of what i done with my loft. There cant to much vent as it doesnt cause the desired draw effect. The saying is "less is best".

thanks for that been studying that thread. Can u tell me how big the gap needs to be in the actual roof to accomadate the holes in the first roof sheet that has the holes cut in the ridges if this makes sense or doesn't it matter. To achieve the desired result does the system need to be at the back of the roof or can it be more in the middle.

 

thanks again

i think this is going to solve the problem i have been having for the past 3 years. Poor ventilation and poor light, i,m chuffed to bits with it. I am doing my yb loft on saturday, and cant wait as i,ve always hated how dull and stuffy it is.

the design doesnt allow any rain to get in, and thats exactly whats happening, not a single drop of water, even after these torrential downpours, not a drop. The roof is very secure, and the ventilation is what i wanted, so perfect.
