How BattenUP Battens Work
The primary causes of premature
failure of felt are:
- Water ponding behind battens
- Lack of adequate ventilation
Ponding water can cause major damage
to your home. The felt will rot allowing
water to penetrate under the roof
system. Then, depending on the severity
of the leak, roof sheathing will rot,
followed by damage to the interior of
your home.
BattenUP fluted battens will not
allow water to pond. Water will flow
down and off the roof while air flowing
up through the fluted battens promotes
drying and preserves the life of the
felt underlayment.
Notice the water ponds behind the
wood battens
Water flows freely through the
BattenUP fluted battens and air
circulates under the tile. Ventilation
is extremely important when it comes to
extending the life of a tile roof. There
must be a way to allow trapped moisture
to escape.
BattenUP battens helps solve this
problem.
