Will every brand of shingle correctly align on The Edge Vent in terms of nailing requirements?
No, every brand of shingle will not correctly align on The Edge Vent in terms of nailing requirements.
Every brand of shingle will not correctly align on The Edge Vent in terms of nailing requirements. Air Vent would never make that claim because we do not control shingle manufacturer's nailing requirements for current shingles or for roofing materials that will be introduced to the market in the future. It is very possible that the installer of The Edge Vent will have to deviate from the shingle manufacturer's recommended nailing location to ensure that both The Edge Vent and the shingles are adequately secured to the roof deck. Note: Nailing over the slot opening should be avoided to prevent damage and possible shingle and product wind uplift. Avoid nailing between 5-3/4" and 7-1/4" from the drip edge of The Edge Vent. Note: The slot is cut 5" from the edge flashing beneath the vent. The actual drip edge of the vent extends another inch beyond the edge flashing located beneath the vent for a total distance of approximately 6" from the slot.
