Trusted by roofing professionals across Canada, the VMAX 301-12 is the best quality roof vent on the market. With no moving parts, its unique design allows it to utilize the full effect of the wind to create a drawing power, thus eliminating any excess heat and humidity outside the attic space. The VMAX-301-12 reduces the risk of ice damming, moisture condensation and the creation mould & mildew. Built using galvanized steel this vent is completely rodent proof. The unique height design and storm-proof deflector system of the VMAX-301-12 also reduce any risk of weather infiltration.
