RapidRidge - A Fully Passive and Ventilated Dry Ridge Roof System

Rapid Ridge Ventilated Dry Ridge System is a brand new concept in Australia. Although widely used throughout Europe for many years, here in Australia we have not moved from a ‘wet’ traditional method of mortar and pointing for securing ridge caps. The dry ridge system is not only quicker and easier to install, but it provides huge environmental benefits including a lower electricity bill for cooling costs.
Allowing the roof to breathe is important not just for the structure of the roof but also for the health of the people living there. Air movement is the most important element of passive cooling as this cools the building by carrying hot air out of the building. This can be particularly effective as the sun sets after a hot day and the outside temperatures drop. Air circulation helps to prolong the life of the roof structure by reducing the severity of temperature fluctuations over time.
