Frequently Asked Questions

Is there a way to use the Aerix Roof Ventilation System in retrofit applications? Aerix can be used for renovation projects when re-roofing. This product is installed before the roof decking is installed on the roof. The first course of the roof decking can be removed and Aerix can then be installed.

Can Aerix be used in non-ventilation applications? Yes. The Aerix Eave Insulation Dam was created to act as an insulation dam and wind washing preventative for application in non-vented roof assemblies.

What is Aerix made of? Aerix is made of 100% recycled High Density Polyethylene (HDPE).

Does Aerix fit into framing Bays that are not perfectly spaced? The patent pending design of Aerix will adapt to framing that is spaced up to 5/8” too narrow or too wide.

Where can I buy Aerix? Aerix is available through most building supply stores. The exclusive distributor of Aerix is Parksite (www.parksite.com).

Where is Aerix Manufactured? The Aerix Roof Ventilation System is produced by bpEnnovations, a Vermont-based company that is committed to having all manufacturing take place within the continental United States. Currently, Aerix is manufactured in Long Island, NY.

Can spray foam be applied directly to the Aerix Roof Ventilation System? Yes, the HDPE is formulated to withstand the high temperatures and chemical compounds of the spray foam application. Since the chemical composition of spray foams vary, we recommend that you check with the manufacturer of the foam product for compatibility of the materials.

How do I use this product when the roof pitch is less than 8:12? In cases where the roof pitch is less than 8:12, we recommend that you use a Continuation Panel in conjunction with the Eave Baffle Vent, ensuring that the vented area clears the depth of the insulation. 

Can I customize Aerix to fit a narrow framing bay? Yes, Aerix cuts easily with a utility blade for easy customization. 

How do I fasten Aerix components to framing? Aerix can be fastened with a hammer tacker, staple gun or roofing nails.
