This varies according to the age (brittleness) of the roof and the degree of perpendicularity of the hail strike. In general, 1/2″ hail or smaller will do little or no damage to most roofs, other than cracking of polyvinylchloride coatings. 3/4″ hail may damage roll roofing and older composition shingles. 1″ hail and larger is likely to damage most roofs, even slate.
Proper ventilation reduces energy bills, winter ice buildup and eliminates mold and mildew, which can lead to major health problems. By ventilating, you are extending the life of other building components, shingles, insulation, etc. Our hot Texas summers can destroy both a roof and its underlying decking.
