Benefits of technology

[0008]There is provided a roof ridge vent. The roof ridge vent includes an elongate top wall secured to a pair of opposed outer sidewalls depending generally outwardly and generally downwardly from peripheral longitudinal edges of the top wall, and a pair of opposed end walls depending from opposite ends of the top

Problems solved by technology

Reliably heating and cooling building structures under those roofs can pose a number of challenges.
Current attempts to secure roof ridge vents have been largely unsuccessful.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0001]A residential and commercial roof generally serves utilitarian functions for building structures. Reliably heating and cooling building structures under those roofs can pose a number of challenges.[0002]Roof ridge vents may be employed to promote air circulation in attics. Current attempts to secure roof ridge vents have been largely unsuccessful. There remains a long-felt need for a suitable means of making and installing roof ridge vents.BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS[0003]FIG. 1 is a perspective view in elevation of a roof ridge having an installed roof ridge vent in accordance with the present invention.[0004]FIG. 2 is a cross-sectional view in elevation of a roof ridge vent according to FIG. 1.[0005]FIG. 3 is a perspective top view of a roof ridge vent according to FIG. 1 with a portion cut out to show detail.[0006]FIG. 4 is a bottom plan view of the roof ridge vent similar to FIG. 1 having four sections.[0007]FIG. 5 is a cross-sectional view...
