While we're talking about holes...

I had one of the radiant barrier folks come out and give an estimate on painting that silver stuff on the bottom side of the roof in the attic. He went up into the attic and yelled "Damn, it's really hot up here". My immediate mental response was "Well duh, it's an attic in August, dummy". Then he brought down his thermometer and it showed 158 degrees. "You have no air flow whatsoever up there and we can fix that!" he exclaimed. After he dropped off his estimate, filled with a long list of things that were wrong with our attic, I decided to do some investigating of my own. I went outside and pulled off one of the soffit vents. The picture shows what I found. The hole in the soffit board was incredibly small! A testiment to the old saying "Well, I can't see it from my house".
