Does SmartVent effect shingles in the high winds?
No. This was a bonus when we put SmartVent through the Dade County 110 mph wind driven rain test. Because SmartVent acts as intake, it actually sucks the shingles down to the roof because of the high velocity wind going through the SmartVent causing a downward draw on the shingles. That’s great news for Floridians. Florida experiences some of the worst winds during hurricane seasons that many of us never have to worry about. Fittingly, the Dade County Test is a test of high winds to determine how well a product reacts under extreme circumstances. SmartVent passed this test with flying colors. It will not effect shingles regular function.
