Fixed Vented Ridge Cap With Hems - Part #WS-420V

Vented ridge cap allows warm and damp air to leave the attic. This will increase your energy efficiency.

Fixed ridge cap means that the standing seam panels will be pinned in place at the ridge. If you have a fixed point at the ridge, you will need a floating connection at the other end of the standing seam panel. In most instances, this will mean using an eave with a bullnose drip edge or eave with a joggle cleat.
