That installation looks like a good fit for the roof's standing seams.

i have to get a new temp gun, one i have giving trouble
it is chalk and cheese the difference in the attic temps now
and its a big roof, 1200cfm should be enough for most houses.

the temp is better except for a west room which has big windows taking full blast of sun from 2pm onwards
could feel the heat spreading from that room across

i buy a 3500 CFM electric one that i eh install yet for a bigger part of the house but it only have one spot that i could mount it and it kinda weird

looking at this solar one...but i fraid the roof leak lol

i haddda get something that cud atleast do 2000 CFM tho

[pugboy]

it’s best mounted at apex so leaks can only occur on highest part since gravity flow of water will be down
but once ridge cap covers most of that and it is sealed should be fine
the flange of the opening has a raised lip also

We’ve been seeing rain every day for the past week. Rain almost every night.

Honestly the weather is really strange ... Why do the forecasts seem so off these days?

[pugboy]

[pugboy]

[Kenjo]

that rain is minimal though

Yup it basically passes by and says ‘hi’ and then it gone

[pugboy]

right now that area is normal cool
before you can’t be in there without turning on a fan as it have no ac there

it’s best mounted at apex so leaks can only occur on highest part since gravity flow of water will be down
but once ridge cap covers most of that and it is sealed should be fine
the flange of the opening has a raised lip also

[Chimera]

Just a FYI

what shiit is this? it's "just an FYI".

Since "FYI" is pronounced as individual letters (eff-why-eye), and the letter "eff" starts with a vowel sound (pronounced like the letter 'e'), you use "an" to make the sentence grammatically correct.

[death365]

But wha d so and so. We iz trinis and na need to speak the Kings English

Major Dust Surge nearing the Caribbean, negligible rainfall to persist over the Region.

A Dusty start to the new work week, as elevated levels of Saharan Dust swiftly near the region. Starting early on Monday, 29th January, a gradual increase in concentrations can expected with an initial peak between Wednesday and Thursday, near moderate levels.

Over the next 7-10 days, we're not expecting much rainfall locally. The incoming Saharan Dust Surge will likely dampen the already slim rainfall chances, leading to mostly sunny to partly cloudy skies with the odd shower favoring a few Easternmost areas over both islands.
