Mark these positions.
3. Warm air rises; therefore, you want to locate roof
vents as near as possible to the ridgeline. Locate
the vent holes roughly 24" (36" Max.) down from
the ridgeline to keep the top of the roof vent
below the ridgeline. Mark this position. Vent
location position should now be approximately
24" down from ridgeline and centered over rafter.
4. Using marked positions as center point scribe two
9-1/2" diameter circles. Drill a starter holes inside
circles, a ½" drill bit should do this nicely.

5. Starting in the drill holes cut two 9 1/2' diameter
circular openings, using either a keyhole saw or
an electric saber saw with sharp coarse blade. If
you do not have a coarse blade, cut away shingles
inside the circle with utility knife before cutting
roof decking. Take care not to make the holes too
large or water leakage may occur.
