Abstract

A roof ridge vent has a pair of opposed, spaced-apart, elongate strips of ventilation material providing ventilation passageways transversely therethrough and forms opposed longitudinally-extending sides of the vent. The elongate ventilation strips are interconnected by a plurality of supports extending transverse relative to the elongate ventilation strips. Each adjacent pair of supports defines an opening therebetween such that an underlying roof surface is visible to an installer through the openings. A vent assembly and method of installation are provided.
