Installation instructions from the PDF. Please refer to the download to view the figure references.
Prior to installing Fascia Strip Vent, Cut 1” off the top of the fascia board, stopping 12” in from the edges and corners.
Cut a strip to use as an end cap from the roof edge to the bottom of the vent as shown (A).
All rake edges require this end cap. The Fascia Strip Vent does not extend further than the bottom of the 1” cutout as shown (B). Nail vents every 6” as shown. Nail end caps with 2 or 3 nails. Cover entire face with a new full size fascia board or aluminum capping extending onto roof.
Step 1: Cut the top of the fascia board (A) 1” below roof deck for airflow ensuring insulation is not blocking the flow. Figure 1
Step 2: Nail Fascia Strip Vent (B) to old fascia board as shown not extending higher than top of fascia board (A). See reverse side for End Cap directions to start and stop vent runs.
Step 3: Nail new fascia board over Fascia Strip Vent or install aluminum capping (C) as shown in Figure 2.
Step 4: Optional to install DCI SoffitGuard (D) edging when using a rain gutter (E).
Here is an application with a 4” x ¾” x 37″ Fascia Strip Vent.
This will give you 9 sq. In of NFA per foot for intake.
The fascia board easily gets installed over the Fascia Strip Vent.
We make custom sizes to fit the needs of your job.
“The venting was easy to install and the clients are very happy with the finished appearance.” – Nathan C. from WA
