Abstract: An apparatus for covering an exterior opening in a roof is disclosed. The apparatus includes a hollow conical element defining an inner volume, the conical element having a first opening on a wide end and a second opening on a narrow end. The apparatus further includes a planar element surrounding an outer brim of the first opening, wherein the planar element accepts a fastener for fastening the apparatus to the roof. The apparatus further includes at least one louver covering the second opening and at least one screen located within the inner volume of the conical element, wherein the at least one screen is fastened to an inner surface of the conical element.

Abstract: An apparatus for attaching one or more roof tiles to a roof ridge is disclosed. The apparatus includes a channel positioned parallel to the roof ridge, the channel having a central planar strip parallel to the roof ridge and flat sides that extend upwards at an acute angle from the central planar strip. The channel accepts adhesive for contact with a roof tile placed longitudinally on top of the channel, and the channel accepts a screw for fastening the roof tile to the apparatus. The apparatus further includes a planar element connected to a distal end of, and coextensive with, each flat side, wherein each planar element extends towards either side of the roof ridge, and wherein each planar element includes a coextensive flat end extending outwards substantially parallel to the roof ridge. A plurality of orifices located in the central planar strip allow the adhesive to penetrate the channel.
