CertainTeed ColorMax® Prefinished Smooth Ventilated Soffit

Proper ventilation is vital protection against damage to roofing materials and structure.  It also increases comfort inside the home or building and energy savings.
 

Experts agree that the most effective system is a balance of air intake and exhaust that creates a uniform flow of air through the attic.  This system creates a condition in which the roof temperature is equalized from top to bottom, supplying a consistent air flow along the entire underside of the roof deck.

WeatherBoards™ Soffit is a selection of styles and designs that finish a home or building’s exterior with just the right amount of flash and attention to detail.

Choose smooth and cedar-grained styles for a porch roof or overhead space.  Or select perforated soffit to control the air flow under eaves and throughout your home or building.

Soffit and Porch Ceiling Panels are available with CertainTeed’s proprietary ColorMax Finishing System which provides a spectrum of prefinished design possibilities with 16 attractive solid colors.  First we apply FiberTect®, our proprietary primer/sealer that is engineered to seal against moisture. Next, as a finishing coat, ColorMax Solid Colors provide coverage against the elements and enhance the deep, natural grain pattern of CertainTeed WeatherBoards.  All are factory-applied for maximum consistency and performance, and allows for faster job completion.

CertainTeed stands behind our WeatherBoards™ Fiber Cement products with an industry-leading 50-year warranty* with 2-year SureStart™ protection that covers both labor and materials.  ColorMax® solid colors and stains have a 15-year limited coating warranty*; and a 15-year SureStart limited labor warranty; for coating application.
