The difference between GAF Cobra® and Master Flow® attic exhaust vents

Whatever style of roof you’re working with, GAF has a ventilation product for the job. For a simple gable roof design with ample ridge line, Cobra® ridge ventilation products are most suitable. For hips, dormers, valleys or more complex roof designs with little or no ridge area, reach for Master Flow® off-ridge vents.
