The Durovent Baffle is the most economical way to ventilate your roof and block out the wind and rain! A water resistant baffle is incorporated into the Number ONE selling vent in the industry allowing for a one-step rafter vent and baffle installation. Installation of the Durovent Baffle eliminates the need for using blocking material such as batt insulation between the vent and the wall top plate, as is commonly the practice for installation of rafter vents without an integral baffle. The Durovent Baffle is both water resistant and durable, blocking out moisture and wind from penetrating the attic. A great choice for 24" on-center applications. Made in the U.S.A.
• One-step installation
• Easy positioning and stapling
• Allows for wide range of heel heights
Durovent Bafle Comes in Several Sizes
DVB2346 Durovent Baffle - 23.5" x 46" Great choice for 24" on-center applications 50/bag, 1000/pallet
UDVB2346 Durovent Baffle - 23.5" x 46" Great choice for 24" on-center applications 70/carton, 840/pallet
The Benefits of a Ventilated Attic
* Allows for cooler attics in the summer
* Helps prevent ice-dam formation in the winter
* Improves insulation efficiencies
* Helps prolong shingle life
* Allows for drier attics

One of the best, most clear videos
Thank you. Saved me a lot of trial and error on my install
Very informative, and the graphics were great!!!
Thank you for the very clear explanation!
how should we install blocking between rafters/trusses for shear transfer?
Hi, how far up do I run them if I have scissor trusses in a 16x18' bunkhosue, thank you
Do you install the baffles in the whole ceiling or just one or 2 away from corners?
Each time I attempt to fold these, they simply snap in half. How were you able to fold those all the way around with out snapping them? I have the 22” foam baffles by duravent that have the perforated middle, which can be optionally separated for 16” spacing.
That's the problem I'm running into right now. I'm considering just stapling them to the roof like the picture in the package shows
He precuts them... Not sure where
Hello, great vid, wondering if I can install these baffle vents in a tuffshed that has 2x4 trusses?
Should be able to.
The buttons are default 1" spacers. Maybe 2" performs better. But the real purpose of these is to contain attic insulation: limit distribution/stop it above exterior wall, which helps maintain thickness around perimeter.
I have never seen so many wrong statements in such a short amount of words. LOL Everything you said is wrong.
@@StacyForest738 The bad news is.... they should be 2" - more volume/less velocity, plus a reduction of radiant heat transfer to the attic space through the plastic..
@@flinch622 I don't think you understand what these are for.
@@StacyForest738 Insulation up to, but not past the top plate - they serve as a containment for blown in insulation.
Do attic baffles block any radiant heat if you run them between your rafters, up towards the roof ridge vent? I have a bunch of extra baffles, so i was going to use them up in that manner if they blocked some of the roofs radiant heat.
They are really thin so they do not work good for insulating anything hot or cold. But they do act as a guide for airflow, which can help cool sections of the roofing, if you were to install it as you mentioned it would cool the roofing, but it would also block airflow to the rest of the attic, unless you are insulating only the ceiling portion of the attic and keeping the attic at room temperature or if you have vaulted ceilings it could be beneficial.
Do you go all the way up to the Ridge vent? I'm turning a 14x40 shed cabin into a home and I saw these and thought they might work goid up in the ceiling since there isn't much room up there once I enclose the ceiling up.
No, you would only run them all the way up to the ridge vent if you have vaulted ceilings, if you have some attic space there's no reason to run all the way up.
@@D.I.Y._All-in-One Ok, thank you for answering. I won't have an attic space. I just got a case of these and I'm putting them in place. After I get these up I'll order the flat ones to go up the rest of the way to the ridge vent. My shed / cabin is a 14x40 and the ceiling is lined with a silver thermal shield. Down here in Alabama the temps have been 98-100 plus degrees and that thin thermal shield is great. I walk in there and it's actually cool inside.
I think after I get the Durovent installed it will cut down on a lot of the humidity as well.
Thank you again!
@@doodybird5766did you finish the tiny house? I just got one 14x40 delivered for my parents.
why do you need baffles in the roof but not in the walls?
Because you want air to move from the soffit drawing in air, over the insulation, and exit a ridge vent or attic fan. It's for ventilating the attic. You dont need to move air in your walls, the walls are full of insulation.
In a cold area with snow on the roof, the air gap helps to create a cold roof and prevent the snow from melting.
