Abstract: A ridge vent for tile roofs. The vent includes first and second sub-flashing portions for spanning air gaps provided between the upper reaches of a roof deck and below a centrally located ridge beam. A plurality of ventilation apertures are provided in each of the sub-flashing portions. A top cap flashing is provided for attachment above the ridge beam. Included in the top cap flashing are a plurality of ventilation apertures defined by edge wall portions. A tile roof is provided, of the flat, low profile undulating, or of the S-tile (undulating) type. Tiles are provided in rows up to the edge of the sub-flashing. The gap between the top of the tiles and the bottom of the top cap flashing is preferably provided with a weathertight seal. Ridge cap tiles are provided in conventional stacked fashion running along above the top cap flashing.

Abstract: A multi-part foundation ventilator. The ventilator has a first frame member with a first exterior peripheral edge flange, and, extending inwardly therefrom, a protruding wall portion of preselected width X.sub.1(A). The first inwardly protruding wall portion has an outer surface portion with a first receiving ledge portion and a protruding, first joining flange portion. A second frame member has a second inwardly protruding wall portion of preselected width X.sub.2(A). The second inwardly protruding wall portion further includes an outer surface portion, with a second receiving ledge portion and a second joining flange portion. The first joining flange portion of the first frame member is sized and shaped to fit in close fitting, overlying engagement with the second receiving ledge portion of the second frame member.
