Abstract
A fascia ventilator has a polyvinyl chloride extruded, unitary panel having an upper panel section adapted to be attached to a roof-covering support member, an intermediate section forming a drip edge, and a lower section supported parallel to the fascia board. In one version, the baffle is mounted between the lower panel section and the fascia board. In another version the lower edge of the panel is perforated and bent to form a baffle for receiving air passing between the ventilator and the fascia board. The ends of adjacent ventilator panels may be joined in an end-to-end overlapping connection.
