Soffit vents are the vents on the underside of the roof’s eaves (soffits). Soffit vents can also be placed under arches, balconies or decking, beams, cornices, or vaults on top of a home. These vents allow fresh air to circulate through the attic space, providing proper ventilation so that condensation doesn’t lead to mold and mildew. 

Soffit vents draw up cooler air from the base of the roof while hot and humid air is exhausted through roof vents at the top of the attic.
