Abstract: Ridge vents and methods of their use are provided. In one embodiment, a rollable ridge vent for covering an opening of a roof ridge includes: an elongated flexible member having a central panel portion, a pair of lateral edges and a pair of transverse ends; a pair of vents disposed proximate to and inward of the lateral edges; a plurality of support ribs for supporting the central panel portion above the roof; and a pair of baffles disposed laterally from the vent openings, each pair of baffles comprising a plurality of baffle sections depending from the bottom surface of the central panel portion and oriented at an oblique angle to a respective proximate lateral edge.

Abstract: Baffled attic vents and methods of their use and manufacture are provided. The baffled air vent of this invention includes an elongated member having a roof facing side and an attic space facing side, a pair of longitudinal side portions, first and second transverse ends, and at least one central panel portion. The vent defines at least one channel on the roof facing side thereof, for directing ventilated air. The channel includes a bottom portion having an integral baffled surface thereon. The vent further has an installed, convective air flow reading, under a 5 Pa air pressure differential, of at least about 95 CFM. Further embodiments contain separation means for permitting the attic vent to be separated by hand in a transverse or longitudinal direction.

Abstract: Ridge vents and methods of their use are provided. The preferred ridge vent includes an elongated flexible member having a central panel portion, a pair of lateral edges and a pair of transverse ends. A pair of vent openings are disposed proximate to said lateral edges. The central panel portion includes a plurality of support ribs for supporting the central panel portion above the roof. A pair of baffles is disposed laterally from the vent openings and the lateral edges. Each of the baffles is oriented in a first direction relative to the central panel portion for at least a period of time prior to installation and is oriented in a second direction relative to the central panel portion after the installation.

Abstract: Ridge vents, methods of their manufacture, and methods of their use are provided. The preferred ridge vent includes an elongated flexible member having a central panel portion comprising support means for supporting the central panel above a roof, a pair of side portions containing a vent opening and a baffle. The baffle is adjustable from a relatively flat position to a relatively vertical position with respect to the roof. Having an adjustable baffle permits the ridge vent to be rolled more easily, and assists in lower cost molding of the vent.
