3 HOW PRO-MASTER RIDGE VENT WORKS: Pro-Master Ridge Vent Enabling Attic Air to Exit Cap Shingle Pro-Master Ridge Vent Shingles Roof Sheathing Moist, Hot Attic Air Cool, Fresh Air Enters Through Soffit Vents PRO-MASTER RIDGE VENT INSTALLATION: 1. Remove ridge cap shingles along entire length of ridge. 2. a) Measure 1 from ridge peak on each side of ridge. For ridge board construction measure 1-1/2 on each side of ridge. b) Snap chalk line along entire length of ridge. c) Leave a minimum of 12 of sheathing closed at each end of ridge. d) Cut opening in sheathing along ridge. DO NOT CUT through roof trusses or ridge board. e) Remove sheathing to create slot. 3. Tack one end of the Pro-Master Ridge Vent (netting side down) over the slot to hold in place at one end of the ridge. Unroll entire length of vent, pull to remove sags and tack in place so vent is snug and centered over slot. If more than one piece of Ridge Vent is needed, simply butt the multiple pieces together and tack in place with a nail. Cover the entire length of the ridge with vent, including the minimum 12 of unslotted ridge. 4. Install ridge cap shingles directly over Pro-Master Ridge Vent. Fasten shingle and Ridge Vent to roof using galvanized roofing nails supplied with the ridge vent. Please follow power nailing and safety instructions enclosed with coil nails or use hand nails provided. To obtain a uniform look and prevent shingle damage, do NOT drive nails through shingle. Note: This product has a net free ventilation area of 15.2 square inches per linear foot. To operate properly, there must be equal or greater soffit ventilation than ridge ventilation. Installation Tips Hip Roof Installation Cut the slot along the ridge to within 12 inches of the end of the ridge. Install Pro-Master Ridge Vent along the entire length of the ridge. Do not cut slots or install Ridge Vent along the hips of the roof. Obstruction Along Ridge Cut the slots along the ridge to within 12 inches of each side of the obstruction. Install Pro-Master Ridge Vent along the ridge, butting up against the obstruction. T and L Style Roofs Cut slots along the ridge to within 12 inches of each side of the ridge intersections. First install Pro-Master Ridge Vent along the entire long run of the ridge. Then install it along the short run of the ridge so the ridge vent butts up against the Pro-Master Ridge Vent already installed on the long run.

6 HOW PRO-MASTER HIGHPOINT SERIES 5 & 7 RIDGE VENTS WORK: Pro-Master Highpoint Series 5 and Series 7 Ridge Vents enable attic air to exit which reduces heat and moisture build-up. This helps the shingles last longer and make insulation more effective. They also help reduce energy costs. Pro-Master Highpoint Vents are designed to withstand extreme temperature variations and structural loads.

When installing Pro-Master Highpoint Vents, all other vent openings (except soffits) should be closed off. The slot cut in the roof ridge should only be cut no closer than twelve (12) inches from any junction point such as intersecting roof ridge, chimney, gable or other obstruction. Install vent over entire length of ridge. Roof pitch 3/12 (14 slope min) to 12/12 (45 max). All nails should be ring shank roofing nails to provide maximum pull out resistance against wind uplift. Do not overdrive fasteners. Step 1: Remove ridge cap shingles from the entire length of the ridge. NOTE: Delete Step 1 for new construction. Step 2 for Series 5: Snap chalk line on both sides of the ridge and no more than.750 (3/4) of an inch from the peak. Step 2 for Series 7: Snap chalk line on both sides of the ridge and no more than.375 (3/8) of an inch from the peak. Step 3: Cut along both chalk lines. NOTE: Slot should not be cut any closer than within twelve (12) inches of gable end, hip or intersecting ridge. Step 5: Nail each additional section in the same manner until entire ridge is covered. A second chalk line may be utilized to ensure vent alignment. Cut last piece to length and install with original uncut end to the outside. Be sure to position closure tabs at the end of the ridge. Step 7: Ridge-to-ridge application requires a miter-cut to maintain continuous ridge line appearance. Step 4: For appearance (to blend with the roof line), it is recommended that the Highpoint vent be installed the entire length of the ridge. Position the first piece at one end of the ridge. For Series 5: Using 2-1/2" ring shank roofing nails, for 3/4" roof penetration or penetration through the deck, whichever is less, anchor vent through preformed nail holes.for Series 7: Using 1-3/4" ring shank roofing nails, anchor vent. The closure tabs must be positioned at the end of the ridge. Step 6: For Series 5: Install new ridge cap in normal manner, using 2-1/2" ring shank roofing nails, for 3/4" deck penetration or penetration through the deck, whichever is less. For Series 7: Install new ridge cap in normal manner, using 1-3/4" ring shank roofing nails. For Both Series: Nailing the ridge caps through the vent along the nailing line will secure the vent. Shingles may need to be trimmed. Step 8: Ridge-to-roof application requires a miter-cut to maintain continuous ridge line appearance.
