Abstract: An improved rainwater diverter for use as the terminal portion of roof flashing is disclosed for covering the abutment of a vertical wall and a sloped roof. The flashing comprises essentially twin, bilaterally symmetrical flanges of which either is adaptable for use as a vertical wall flange that lies in a plane which is essentially normal to the plane of the sloped roof flange. There is provided at the lower portion of the flashing, as an integral part thereof, a diverter part which spans the part of the flashing which lies along the vertical wall above the abutment and the part which lies along the sloped roof and lies at an obtuse angle to each of the said flanges.

Abstract: An improved roof flashing is disclosed for covering the abutment of a vertical wall and a sloped roof. The flashing comprises a vertical wall flange which lies in a plane which is essentially normal to the plane of the sloped roof flange. There is provided at the lower portion of the flashing, as an integral part thereof, a diverter part which spans the part of the flashing which lies along the vertical wall above the abutment and the part which lies along the sloped roof and lies at an obtuse angle to each of the said flanges. The upper surface of the diverter is an essentially triangular part with its uppermost corner integral with the flashing at the juncture of the wall part and the roof part, with the two lowermost corners joined at or near the lower edges of the wall part and the roof part in a manner which directs water falling from the flashing away from the wall.
