Mike, You will need some type of vent. This can be either turbine vents or ridge vents. Depending on the shape of your existing turbine vent, you may be able to keep the one you currently have, or if its starting to corrode you may want to replace it. The best option in many cases is to remove the turbine vents and install a ridge vent.
