Roof Vent Recommendation for High Wind Areas If you get strong wind gusts, we recommend protecting your roof vents and openers with restraint cables. Roof vent restraints can be purchased from Exaco Trading (US distributor of Rigas) or can be made, they are not a standard part from the Riga manufacturer. Two restraints are used for each window; one on each side of the window. Install each loop between two flat washers on screws inserted into the channel.
