Calculating your
Ventilation requirements
Balanced ventilation requires 1
square foot of ventilation for every 300 square feet of attic
floor space.
1. Calculate the total
square footage of the attic floor area (round up to the highest
number). This number will determine the minimum total linear feet
of Cobra Sof-Edge air intake vent that is needed.
2. Find the appropriate amount of Cobra Sof-Edge air intake
vent and minimum exhaust ventilation that corresponds to the total
attic square footage.
