Australia’s unpredictable weather, such as severe weather temperatures and heavy rainfall can create many challenges to homeowners.
Home ventilation is highly recommended to help benefit your home and also helps to lower costs on power bills.
At Sunstate Roofing Services we supply and install Ampelites Australian Made Spinaway Turbo Ventilator also known as a whirlybird.
There is a list of benefits of using Ampelites Whirlybird for your home, some of these are displayed below:
- Prolong the lifespan of your roof
Whirlybirds can help prolong the lifespan of your roof by allowing the correct airflow throughout your roof’s cavity. Whirlybirds help lower inside temperatures by ventilating the hot air out that becomes trapped in the roof cavity and replacing it with fresh outside air.
Whirlybirds also help to remove the moisture laden air from inside the home which can create mildew, mould and dampness to insulation, ceilings, and roof timbers.
Installing a whirlybird is an effective all year-round ventilation system. It can help ventilate the free flow of air and prevent damage inside the roof cavity prolonging the lifespan of your roof.
- Saves money on electricity bills
As discussed above, whirlybirds help to lower inside temperatures by removing the hot humid air out of the roof cavity, replacing the air with fresh cooler air. This in turn helps to reduce the heat inside the home which may reduce the use of air conditioning systems. The reduction of air conditioning systems will help to reduce the cost of electricity bills. Whirlybirds are also maintenance free and are powered by the wind 24 hours a day, helping to keep money in your wallet!
- How many whirlybirds do I need for my home
One whirlybird ventilator effectively ventilates the roof space of an average home. For greater satisfaction allow two for homes that are 160-180 square metre and three for homes 220-270 square meters. If you are unsure how many your home needs, contact our friendly team and we will happily provide you with the exact number of whirlybirds needed for your roof size.
