Roof Ventilation

Roof ventilation is a system of airflow and air circulation that uses vents to invite fresh outdoor air inside your pole barn, barndominium, and metal building and keeps out harmful moisture, mold, airborne illness, and material decay. Roof overhangs, ridge vents, and eave vents encourage natural air flow throughout your pole building that then exits through cupolas, windows, doors, or even mechanical ventilation. Ridge vents are a practical and productive solution for roof ventilation when the ridge line is long enough. Depending on how you’re using your pole building, you may need more ventilation, for example, when you’re stabling horses or working with machinery that puts off fumes or adds moisture to the air. Don’t worry, there are many ways to ventilate your barn, and Pole Barn Building understands the stack effect to move air in and out.

Cupolas

A cupola in a pole barn serves as a crucial ventilation feature, allowing hot air to escape from the building’s interior during the warmer months. By promoting airflow and reducing condensation, it helps maintain a more comfortable and healthier environment for both livestock and stored items.
