Is Roof Doctor NM Air Vent Inc. certified?

No — we've attended in-person Air Vent Inc. product-knowledge training (Albuquerque, NM), but Air Vent Inc. generally does not issue individual "certified" credentials for product training. We list this as training attended, never as certification. That distinction matters and we keep it strict.

What do you look for on a Air Vent Inc. install?

We check the finished roof against Air Vent Inc.'s published install spec — nailing pattern, flashings, underlayment, accessories, and warranty registration paperwork. Balanced ventilation math — net free area, ridge/soffit ratios in NM attics

Should I hire a Air Vent Inc.-authorized contractor?

For system warranty coverage (like GAF Golden Pledge or Owens Corning Platinum), yes — only manufacturer-authorized installers can register those warranties. For the roof itself, install quality matters more than the badge. We'll tell you honestly whether the bid you have satisfies the Air Vent Inc. warranty requirements.

Owner-attested attendance. Air Vent Inc. does not typically issue individual certificates for product-knowledge sessions. Listed as training attended, never as certification.

What we check on a Air Vent Inc. install

Balanced intake (soffit) + exhaust (ridge) — one without the other doesn't work.
Net free area (NFA) calculated to the attic square footage — not just "add a vent."
Never mix ridge vent with power/gable vents on the same roof plane — short-circuits airflow.
Baffles at every soffit bay so insulation doesn't block the intake.

Does the Air Vent Inc. warranty on this bid cover material only, labor + material, or full system with workmanship?
