Ridge Vent Smoke Bomb Demonstration

Source: www.airvent.com. This segment highlights how well a ridge vent designed with an external baffle uses the wind to its advantage to pull more air out of the attic in testing conducted at the University of Florida. See the Bernoulli Effect for yourself!

A way to see the difference between brands and choose the best... You must see the water test too!

Thank you very much.

Although... One side is up against a wall, the other a gable...is that gable ventilated by external soffit vents?
This could make a great deal of difference in the intake of the passive ventilation system. Which we all know, is how passive ventilation works... too many variables left out of the equation here.

If you look back, you'll see there's no gable vent, there's just another hip. It must be soffit vented.

Would have been nice to see without wind. Not going to get wind in an area with plenty of trees.

Smoke always rises because it is lighter than air, it does not prove heat is being draw out of the ridge vent. Demonstrate heat being draw out of ridge vent not smoke, this will prove whether ridge vent works, thermal gun & thermometer must use to check the attic heat & at the ridge vent to find out.

Is ridge better than turbine?

[@austinc691]

Yes of course

[@tunnelportterror]

you're not sealing the edges of the ridge vent deep into sealer, like this video states ruclips.net/video/XIX8E2RriDU/видео.html
