Expert Verdict Reviewed by the SuperArbor Pro Desk

Vented Double 6 soffit is the standard choice when an attic needs continuous intake airflow; pair it with vented or solid panels per the elevation. Keep nail slots slightly loose to let the aluminum move with temperature swings, and butt panels to a 1/4 in. gap for expansion. If the project calls for a color match to the siding, verify current Alsco color availability before ordering trim.

Work from stable ladders or scaffolding when installing soffit and wear eye protection when cutting aluminum panels.
