No it doesn't when you use fering strips to to attch the siding .... This will allow drainage

Will be doing an update to this later this fall

I hope you show us the photos instead of just talking about them and we barely get a glimpse. Thanks in advance.

I'm glad you found that very helpful. My first question is is this a storm chaser? Things that make me go hummm My questions to you would be how old is the house do you know if it has aluminum slotted soffit vents or not. If it's a 1920s home that has the solid soffit with no Vents then that's considered a hot roof and ridge vent is useless. The soffit Vince I'm talking about would be on the underneath side of where the gutters would hang on a home. I have reopened the forms if you wanted to post pictures of your home you can do that at letsDIYmyhome.com And that would make it much easier to give you the correct information.

, for the folks with extreme heat issues we will be doing a video on how to reduce the ATTIC heat!! by as much as 30-40%!!!!!! Very Soon!!

Well im guessing your down south..... So I have been doing some research and now I guess im welling to say as long as the gable fan you want to install has lovers so when its not running they close. Now I would put that on a thermostat and set that to 110 degrees.... witch means mornings cloudy days and winter mo. its not running... this will 100 percent work against the roof ventilation system. I think you should talk to your local Engineer before doing this. I personally would just use close cell spray it all and turn the attic into a conditioned space... problem solved the correct way.!

You are totally correct

Problem is I have 14 blades I sharpened so a file would take me way too long

:)

Oh, this is exterior betwee stucco and metal (composite) sliding glass door frame.

I'm real skeptical to tell you to caulk it, but if you want to try it feel free to do it but I would recommend putting some backer rod to fill in that gap and then go over that....

@@letsdiymyhome I'm trying to use wood or PVC trim to fill part of the gap; then, likely hold that in place with Liquid Nails; then, caulk any space between the trim piece and the stucco with Polly type caulking for complete waterproofing. It's just the gap varies a bit, so I may need to cut the wood pieces in smaller lenghts and glue together.

I think ours is the cobra type you spoke of. It definitely has the sos pad looking filter media. Maybe I'll blow it out with the air compressor to make sure the filter media isn't plugged up before adding a whirly bird.

sana in the Attic or sauna in the house? For the folks that are down south Arizona climate. I would be looking at two other options in the attic to fight heat. The one that would work best honestly would be turn the attic into a condition space which means at that point we will be then spray foaming against the roof sheeting and sealing up the attic which means now we Good heating coolant if one wanted to but definitely would want to keep a dehumidifier rolling up there. In the final option would be is look at something called the p2000 which is a reflectant film cheaper but does help a lot

@@SteveOOOOO Sorry sauna in the attic we are in central Arkansas. We actually did purchase a dehumidifier recently. Could poor air flow in the attic affect the humidity level in the house?

:) That wouldn't surprise me at all... The good news is at this time in most cases 4G is faster. I lock on to 1 tower then 2 or 3 bands pending there speed

Thank you for the reply to make it a great day!

No single country or company owns 5G technology outright. 5G is based on a collection of patents held by various companies worldwide.

Working on making them better ty

Many different types of roof vent systems that will work with metal roofs That's an example of one

hybrids are fairly new and at this time we are running test on them.... I'm not a fan as of now. unless you enjoy calking stay away.. What ever your project is get the caulking that is best for that project. I'm not into doit all type calking and will be doing a video on there failures soon

we install it under the XPS, each state has different rules if the XPS is install, taped sealed correctly then the house wrap is pointless.

There are ok if used on a hot roof meaning no soffit/vents but should have them on all gable ends . Its a lot better then none.

@@letsdiymyhome that's the information I needed. Thanks so much. Should I go ahead and add soffit vents too?

@@Tim.Foster123 yes correct. now pending the age of the home you could have what we call a hot roof and then you will need to drill the blocks open. If you have no vets in the soffit then you most likely have a hot roof.

@@Tim.Foster123 Installing soffit vets is the smarter way to go then install ridge vents... Gable vents wont be needed then.

@@letsdiymyhome Thank SO MUCH for the tips. I really appreciate it. Just bought a 940 sq ft. home that was built in 1955. Rectangle structure with 10/12 roof, gables on each end of the home, facing east & west. One whirlybird/turbine, no soffit vents. No insulation. Second story has 6' ceilings (where the upper 1/2 of the wall is at 45* angle, just as you described at one portion of your video). There was clearly water damage on some portions of the 2nd story ceiling sheetrock. Pulled it down, and saw water stains on roof and back of sheetrock, but even after a weekend-long rain, saw no water coming through the ~20yr old shingle roof. Dunno if the previous owner had the leaks fixed or if it's condensation. I'm betting the latter. Long story short, I don't know if that qualifies as a "hot roof". Had a new metal roof put on, and took down the turbine. Roofer suggested putting up gable vents and not soffit vents. (Apparently his roofing system doesn't allow for ridge vents??) But he's a young kid, so I don't know if he's guessing or giving professional advice. Thanking you for any/all suggestions.
