Lomanco BIB14-BLK 14 Inch Black Aluminum Turbine Vent

Product Description

The LOMANCO BIB14-BLK is a 14-inch black aluminum turbine ventilator designed for residential and light commercial roof ventilation. Wind-driven rotation draws hot, humid air out of the attic space, reducing thermal buildup and moisture accumulation year-round. The unit ships with permanently lubricated upper and lower bearings, eliminating the need for periodic maintenance after installation. Its rigid spider-type internal brace structure maintains blade alignment and resists deformation under wind load. The vari-pitch base adjusts to roof pitches up to 12/12, making it compatible with a wide range of residential roof slopes without additional adapters.

This turbine vent is suited for residential attic ventilation on asphalt shingle, metal, and similar roofing systems. It installs on new construction or as a retrofit replacement on existing roofs with standard framing. The large integrated flashing provides a wide seating surface for a watertight seal on most common roof decking. Roofing contractors, general contractors, and experienced DIYers typically handle installation during roofing projects or as standalone attic ventilation upgrades.

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style turbine roof vent replacement or new installation unit for residential and light commercial attic ventilation applications on roofs with pitches up to 12/12.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a roofing contractor following local building code requirements for attic ventilation area. The roof deck must be properly prepared and the flashing seated and sealed with roofing cement or compatible sealant before fastening. Always verify net free area requirements against local code before determining the number of units needed. Do not install over blocked or restricted attic baffles, as restricted airflow will reduce ventilator performance.
