Abstract: A self-ventilating roofing system that consists of a rigid deck that is connected to the roof support system and has a horizontal opening parallel to the eave, on both slopes, but above the attic space. There is also an opening on either side of the ridge. A radiant barrier comprising of a reflective coating is applied over the roof deck. A slice is made over the lower and upper opening of the deck to allow air to enter the lower opening and exit the upper opening. A panel with vertical grooves is installed over the radiant barrier with the groove side face down. This panel is made of a type of insulated material. A metal drip edge is then installed along the eave. This drip edge should be installed with an air gap between the facia and the drip edge sufficiently wide enough to allow air to enter. A vented ridge vent is then installed at the ridge to allow for the weather proof exit of the air. If a metal roof is being installed then the metal panels can be attached on top of the insulated panel.
