Python™ Single-Layer Vent
Our recycled polyester, single-layer ridge vent can be used under ridge caps, ridge shingles and as a fascia vent to keep attics cooler in summer and dryer in winter. Ideal for all roof applications, Python helps reduce utility costs, and its non-wicking performance helps keep out insects, dust and moisture. Miami-Dade County Approved*, Python is backed by a limited lifetime warranty.


If not pre-cut, use a circular saw and carbide blade to open a 2” slot (1” on each side of ridge) starting and ending 6” from where hip and ridge vent begin and end. (For roof with center beam, open a 3 1/2” slot, 1 3/4” on each side of the ridge.)

Cover entire ridge with Python material along the entire length of the slot.

Use roofing nails to tack the vent in place and caulk ends together if ridge length is longer than a roll of Python. Install ridge caps over the Python ridge vent, taking care to not overdrive roofing nails.
