Knowledge Zone: Above Sheathing Ventilation & Vapour Control Layers
A FREE lunchtime webinar to talk about the details, specifications and benefits of Above Sheathing Ventilation and Vapour Control Layers. 10 CPD points (NZRAB) & 1 LBP point.
Description
How to design and build roofs that work? Up until now, we’ve been designing and constructing roofs with adaptations to deal with symptoms rather than fixing the cause. In New Zealand, we’ve relied on the roofing underlay to absorb inevitable moisture from the underside of the roof cladding rather than managing it.
But there’s a better way – so let’s fight the moisture, heat and condensation together.
Find out why Above Sheathing Ventilation (ASV) is the superhero of roofs that work, understand what’s going on in our roofs, and gain knowledge on how we can design systems that keep our buildings energy-efficient, dry, healthy and durable.
Dive into the details and specifications of the Above Sheathing Ventilation with the Pro Clima team:
- Presenter: Catherine McGregor, Regional Sales Manager – Lower South Island
- Host: Ben Ingledew, Regional Sales Manager - Canterbury
- Panel Discussion: featuring pro clima’s Technical and Sales team members

Come along with your questions, we’ll do our best to address them in the panel discussion or simply listen in and get the information you need.
Content
- What is Above Sheathing Ventilation (ASV) and how does it benefit your roof construction?
- How can ASV be used to provide better condensation/moisture/heat management and weathertightness? And why is air exchange/movement in the attic area a good thing?
- Does ASV assist with both winter and summer flows of water vapour, regardless of roof type & colour? (Yes!)
- Design and build for effectiveness: Practical tips on achieving the right level of ventilation for design and construction professions.
- How to achieve effective ventilated roof spaces?
- What are Vapour Control layers and how do they work?
