An octagonal plastic window assembly is provided for mounting to an exterior surface of the building wall or doer. The window includes two spaced window panes, one of which is glass and the other plastic. An exterior trim ring is provided to circumscribe the window to give a finished appearance to the exterior of the window. An octagonal liner assembly is provided comprising a plurality of interconnected liner panels connected together by a snap fit and received within a rough opening in a building wall or door. An interior trim ring is provided for attachment to the liner assembly to give a finished appearance to the interior side of the building wall or door.

A ridge vent for a hip roof comprising a one piece plastic body including a base wall having transversely spaced rows of integral vanes extending from one surface thereof. The vanes of adjacent rows are positioned such that the vanes define a sinuous path. Preferably, one of each of the rows has the wings extending at an acute angle to the axis of the walls and the other row or each set of rows has the wings extending at an oppositely directed acute axis to the longitudinal axis of the wall toward the wings of the one row. Thus, air is vented through sinuous paths outwardly when the vent is positioned with the wings engaging the roof and the base wall spaced from the roof. A wall is provided over the free ends of the wings and includes a longitudinally extending portion that extends from the wall toward the base wall. The vent is oriented such that the wings in the outermost row of wings extend downwardly and outwardly when the vent is positioned on the ridge of a hip roof, such that when the roof vent is applied to a hip roof and is subjected to transverse winds, water and snow will be deflected from entry into the building.
