Stratflo Ventridge
Stratflo Ventridge provides continuous natural ventilation with effective weather protection under normal weather conditions. It takes maximum advantage of natural stack action, which is a result of temperature differences between the inside and outside of the building causing pressure variations that result in air movement. Heat from machinery, personnel, and also solar heat radiating through the roof and walls, warm the inside air which rises and flows out of the building through the ventridge.

Engineering
The Stratflo Ventridge has been designed and tested in accordance with the appropriate Australian Standards.
Adaptability
Ventridge can be fitted to almost any part of the roof, providing the roof supports are installed at the recommended spacings (refer diagram below). The clear spacing ‘A’ between top purlins must be the ventridge throat width with a tolerance of -0mm to +40mm. Eg, for a 380mm throat ventridge the clear space must be between 380mm and 420mm.
