A gable vent is ideal for attic spaces to allow stagnant air, humidity and trapped heat to escape. But what about those who aren’t really in need of ventilation, who instead would just like the look of a gable vent on their home’s exterior. This could be the case if you have a bonus room or finished attic space where heating and air conditioning exists. In livable spaces a functional gable vent would not be needed. Luckily, Fypon offers all their stylish louvers in both functioning and non-functioning versions. A non-venting Fypon louver is a solid, one-piece urethane unit that does not allow air to pass through. Offered in the same designs as the functioning, the non-venting louvers create architectural interest to what would otherwise be a plain, ordinary gable space.

Functional gable vents (also known as louvers) provide proper air circulation for attic spaces while adding architectural interest to your home’s exterior. Attic spaces take the brunt of both hot, humid summer temperatures and winter’s bitter cold. During the summer months you keep your home cool and comfortable with air conditioning, but these systems do not exist in your attic causing significant heat build up and humidity that cannot escape. Then during the winter months cold, stagnant air can cause condensation build up putting your home at risk for mildew and mold. A simple solution to regulate your attic’s temperature and humidity levels is the addition of an open louver gable vent. Vinyl gable vents are ideal if you are seeking a maintenance free vent that is easy to install. Vinyl gable vents come in 18 colors, plus a paintable option for a custom color match. Select a color to match our vinyl shutters to achieve a unified look to your home’s exterior.
