Ridge Roof Vents
I just noticed a water stain beside the dining room A/C vent. I remembered reading about a defective "grey" plastic ridge vent made by Alcoa. Mine are plastic also, but are black in color. I would suspect this plastic will break down in this summer heat. I think when it rains sideways at times the rain has to come through these vents. I checked the attic and the truss above the suspected leak. It does look like the metal truss strap is stained by moisture.
Anyone have this problem or replaced their black plastic ridge vents? I live in Lynnhaven.
