ABSTRACT:
A roof ridge ventilator (10) comprises a one piece cover member (12) including a pair of flaps (14) and a hinge (16) unitary with the flaps to permit pivotal movement therebetween in order to allow use of the ventilator on roof ridges of different angles, the cover member being designed to be placed underneath a standard cap shingle (20). A pair of vents (22) are located below the pair of cover member flaps (14), and each vent has openings (24) to permit air circulation through the roof ridge. Each vent (22) also has an interior baffle structure (26) that deflects the air flow to limit entry of foreign particles through the roof ridge. The ventilator easily accomplishes the necessary air flow while providing an attractive, nearly undetectable roof ridge ventilator.
