    Sun Tunnels are old but Acceptable

    These old sun tunnels are no longer made.  They appear to be acceptable for another roofing cycle.  The replacement could be a challenge in some instances because of the size and ages of them.

    Sun Tunnels too Close to Valleys

    Some sun tunnels are too close to valleys.  These may need to be rerouted.  Further investigation will need to occur about how to do this with vintage sun tunnels.

    Some roof pipes may need to be rerouted away from valleys also.

    this pipe is too close to this valley and could cause a roof leak

    Roof Ventilation

    1. Larger ridge cuts should be made to allow more hot attic air to escape.  The use of modern ridge vents will also allow better attic airflow.

    2. Solar-powered attic vents are very cool, but not necessary with GAF Cobra 3 ridge vents being installed.  If solar or power vents are used, it is recommended to put them west facing as this is where most of the roof heat gets trapped.

    3. Some soffit vents may be covered by attic insulation.  This can cause trouble with roof ventilation.
