What Ventilation Systems Do We Install?
Traditional Whirlybirds
Whirlybirds are a wind-powered ventilation system that draws hot air and moisture out of your roof space. They’re reliable, require no electricity, and can operate even in light breezes. Ideal for homeowners wanting a low-maintenance, budget-friendly option.
Solar-Powered Roof Vents
These high-performance units use solar energy to power a fan, drawing out hot air and improving air circulation. Great for homes in full sun, they’re more powerful than whirlybirds and effective even on calm days. Plus, no running costs.
Our Promise to You VENTILATION DONE RIGHT.
At Fortified, we treat ventilation as an essential part of your roof—not an afterthought. We install it with the same attention to detail as every flashing, screw, and sheet.

Roof Ventilation FAQs
How many vents will I need?
The answer to this question depends on a number of factors. They include the size of the home, the type of roof, and the climate. Generally speaking, it is recommended that homeowners install one vent for every 90m² of roof space for proper ventilation.
Does roof ventilation actually cool down my house?
Roof ventilation in Brisbane helps to circulate the hot air in your home and cool it down. Roof ventilation can help lower temperatures by up to 10-30°C. In addition to cooling the home, it also helps to reduce energy costs.
Are the vents noisy?
Aside from low energy costs, the ventilation products that we use are designed to work silently. However, they might be noticeable to the homeowner if placed in an audible location.
Do the vents work if there is no wind?
The short answer is yes – roof vents can work without wind. The vents are designed so that hot air can escape through the top of the vent, and cooler air can enter through the bottom.
Are solar-powered roof vents difficult to install?
While solar-powered roof vents require careful installation to ensure optimal performance, they are not inherently difficult to install for professional roofers. It’s important to have them installed by experts to maximize their efficiency and longevity.
What happens if there are bad weather conditions forecast or occurring during my roof ventilation work?
Being roofers for over three generations means that checking the weather forecast has become a ritual. It’s the first thing we do when we get up. And it’s the last thing we do before going to bed.
What are the benefits of solar-powered roof vents over traditional whirlybirds?
Solar-powered roof vents offer several advantages over traditional whirlybirds, including greater efficiency in air circulation, consistent performance regardless of wind conditions, and a positive environmental impact by reducing energy consumption. They are a smart investment for homeowners looking for long-term savings on energy bills.
How long do roof vents typically last?
The lifespan of roof vents can vary depending on the type and material. Whirlybirds, made from durable metals, can last over 20 years with minimal maintenance. Solar-powered vents also have a long lifespan, typically around 15-25 years, thanks to their robust construction and advanced technology.
Can roof ventilation help prevent mold and mildew?
Yes, proper roof ventilation helps to expel moisture-laden air from your attic, reducing the risk of mold and mildew growth. This is particularly important in humid climates like Brisbane, where moisture can easily build up and lead to structural issues and health concerns.
