ROOF VENT FOR A CORRUGATED METAL ROOF
A roof vent comprising a vent base and a vent top. The vent base broadly includes a frame, an upper flashing, a lower flashing, a left flashing, and a right flashing. The frame includes a lip for attaching the vent top to the vent base. The lower flashing is configured to define an open-ended cavity. The vent base structure prevents rainwater from pooling above the roof vent and diverts rainwater around the roof vent and into the troughs of a corrugated metal roof surface. A sealant material is placed beneath the vent base where it is protected. The upper flashing may include a left vertical wall, a right vertical wall, a left flange, and a right flange configured to divert rainwater over the raised ridges of the corrugated metal roof surface. The vent top is attached to the vent base and includes a collar flashing, a collar, and a cap.
