Expert Verdict — Reviewed by the SuperArbor Pro Desk
Two-way roof vents supplement static exhaust ventilation on shingle roofs and should be balanced with adequate intake (soffit) venting per the 1/150 or 1/300 code ratio your jurisdiction uses. Keep vent placement high on the roof field, well above intake, and flash the flange into the shingle courses per the manufacturer's instructions.
Use fall protection when installing rooftop vents and follow the manufacturer's instructions and local building code.
