ABSTRACT:
A soffit construction is set forth for use under the eave of a roof overhang on a building. A lengthwise soffit board (one or more serially arranged) are placed parallel to and at the top end of the outside wall under the cave. There is a first outside soffit board which is parallel to an inside soffit board. The two boards in series are arranged to define a gap. The two soffit boards define parallel edges to enable a vent strip to be snapped between the two edges. The vent strip engages the board's edges to position a covering in the gap with a set of perforations there to enable air flow up into the roof for ventilation purposes.
