™
low slope roofing system should only be installed on roofs with a slope of ¼:12 to
2:12.

recommends:
1. Net Free Ventilating Area (NFVA) of 1:150 as a minimum.
2. Balanced approach for most effective ventilation (balance between the lower and upper parts of
the roof by providing 50% of NFVA at the soffit and 50% at the ridge).
3. NFVA at the upper part of the roof should not exceed 50%.
4. Where length of the roof ridge is sufficient provide continuous ridge vents for most effective
ventilation approach.
