I have a 10 by 25 ft 1.5/12 pitch shed type roof that has always had roll
roofing.....It attaches under the 20+inch house eve with little clearance
(just a few inches).......Anyway I'm planning on stripping it, laying on a
new layer of CDX and was considering using ICE Shield over the whole
thing.....the ceiling below is insulated but with little space between
insulation and roof deck. It has no official ventilation (100 yr. old house
with the addition probably 75yrs old)......Will eve only ventilation
suffice, like in every rafter bay? If not how does one vent the top end on a
nearly flat roof? Any cons or suggestions on the Ice shield? Thanks Rod
