Abstract
A roof ridge ventilator for the roof of a building having a shingled roof. The ventilator is formed substantially of zinc metal and has a longitudinally extending series of closely spaced drain hole punchings in the baffles thereof which are constructed and arranged to achieve flow of a substantially uniform sheet of a biostatic ionic solution of zinc across the shingled roof from opposite sides of the ventilator during rain, dew or melting snow conditions. Such a washing of the shingles prevents and retards fungus and bacterial growth which defaces the shingles.
