The disclosed ridge vent generally includes a central structure disposed on the ridge of a roof with adjacent arm sections emanating from the central section. In embodiments, the arm sections may run more or less parallel with the roof line although this is not required. The central section and adjacent arm sections contain airspace allowing warm air to rise up the central section and then to flow into the adjacent arm sections and escape out of vents located on the underside of the arm sections (facing the roof). A feature of the disclosed ridge vents is that the vents are disposed facing downward facing the roof. There may be filters, for example, mesh filters, covering the vents to prevent animals, birds, insects, etc. from entering the structure.
