The VENT Systems Ridge Vent RV10DT is engineered to expel air from the roof void using natural convection, as warmer air rises, or through negative pressure generated by wind passing over the roof. Featuring an adhesive and flexible aluminium flashing, the RV10DT conforms to various roofing profiles, effectively preventing water ingress. It’s designed to be compatible with roof cladding profiles having a trough depth of 34mm or greater.
This product ensures compliance with the National Construction Code 2022 Vol 1: F8D5/ABCB Housing Provisions Standard 10.8.3.
The RV10DT operates year-round without requiring any moving parts or energy consumption. Serving as a discreet alternative to traditional rotary-driven (whirlybird) vents, the RV10DT doesn’t necessitate roof cladding penetration and is concealed by ridge capping or flashings upon installation.
It’s strongly recommended to incorporate high-level vents with some form of Over Fascia or Eaves ventilation for optimal performance.
Please note that the Metal ridge cap is supplied by the roof cladding supplier.
