How to Install a Vented Ridge Detail on a Standing Seam Metal Roof

How do you properly install a ridge vent on a standing seam metal roofing system?

Ventilation is a crucial part of roof installation, and many buildings are vented through the ridge of the roofing assembly. Today on The Metal Roofing Channel, Matt Lane from Metal Construction Solutions and Installations demonstrates how to install the Sheffield Metals vented ridge detail. This is a re-roof, so the house already had ventilation cut into the attic space, but be sure to account for any new or additional ventilations requirements on your project. The venting material used in this video is a product by Cor-A-Vent.
