Double-leaf ridge vents controlled by an electric drive have become an ever more popular choice in recent years among dairy cattle breeders. The electric drive of the vent can be controlled by a button, and the system can be interconnected with our Haze weather station along with back-up power supply. The double-leaf ridge vent consists of the vent itself, vent leaves, vent lifting mechanism and an electric drive. The vent leaves for stables are line with canvas, while polycarbonate panelling is a better choice for milking parlours and waiting halls. The width of the opening is usually between 1,000 and 1,800 mm.

USE:

This type of ridge vent we install into milking parlours and industrial buildings.

The top covering has the same slope as the roof (18–30°). Due to this design, customers often choose it for areas where the original appearance of the building needs to be preserved. The entire system is maintenance-free. The slot is always produced with a polycarbonate top covering and a side metal deflector available in a wide range of colors. It can be attached to a beam, Metsec profile, or another supporting element. As an accessory to the ridge ventilation slot, cladding can be provided to prevent water from leaking into the barn in adverse weather conditions. This accessory should always be included when the roof slope is less than 16°. The cladding is made from galvanized sheet metal or Lindab sheet metal (with the option of adding sealing).

USE:

The ridge ventilation slot without regulation, with saddle covering, is primarily designed for natural ventilation and lighting of stables and waiting areas.

The standard and most widespread version of ridge vent is a laminated plastic vent without a damper. This variant can be installed onto openings with maximum width of 1,500 mm. Openings wider than 1,500 mm require a ridge vent with a self-supporting laminated plastic arch. These versions can be installed onto openings up to 4,500 mm wide. The vent is made of hot-dip galvanised steel and is fastened onto wooden or steel components. The top arch is most commonly made of laminated plastic or polycarbonate and the venthole is not closed off by a damper.

TYPES: 

- Vent with smooth flat laminated plastic  (for sizes 400-1500 mm)

- Vent with self-supporting arch (for sizes 1,500-4,500 mm)

- Vent made of flat polycarbonate (for sizes 500-4,500 mm)

- Vent without top arch (for sizes 400-800 mm)

- Ridge vent on a skillion roof (can be covered

by roll-up canvas or polycarbonate screen)

USE:

This variant of ridge vent is installed onto stables for cattle, horses, sheep or goats, but also onto waiting halls in milking parlours, onto water treatment plants or warehouses.

As an addition to the ridge vent, sheet metal flashing can be supplied. It prevents water from seeping into the stable under adverse weather conditions. This addition should always be included if the roof pitch is less than 16°. The flashing is made of galvanized steel sheets (sealing can be added as an option) or Lindab steel sheets.  

Types of sheet metal coating:

1. With sealing profile

2. In RAL color selection

3. Without sealing profile

Optional RAL colors for sheet metal
