Ridge Ventilation
Ridge Vents
The best overall value in attic
ventilation, ridge vents combine
a low installed cost with excep-
tional aesthetics. They ventilate
at the most effective location on
the roof – the ridge. GAF offers
a full line of ridge vents for use
in virtually any climate.
* See GAF Shingle & Accessory Ltd. Warranty for complete coverage and restrictions. The
word “Lifetime” means as long as the original individual owner(s) of a single-family detached
residence [or the second owner(s) in certain circumstances] owns the property where the
shingles and accessories are installed. For owners/structures not meeting the above criteria,
Lifetime coverage is not applicable. Lifetime ltd. warranty on accessories requires the use of at
least three qualifying GAF accessories and the use of Lifetime Shingles.
