초록 ▼

A roof-mounted venting device or assembly adapted for use with roof mounted photovoltaic (PV) panels is provided. Venting devices and assemblies can include a replacement flashing that fits over a cut-down roof pipe vent as well as venting assemblies that redirect airflow from a roof pipe vent. Such replacement flashing can include a substantially planar flashing portion from which protrudes a hood portion with one or more vent openings to allow airflow into and out from the interior of the hood portion. The vent openings can be configured as a series of louvered openings that open in a down-roof direction to prevent flow of run-off and debris into the hood portion. Venting assemblies can include a coupling portion for mating with a vent-pipe, a section of hose or piping to redirect airflow, and a venting portion disposed outside or between roof-mounted solar panels.

1. An exhaust gas replacement flashing comprising: a substantially planar flashing portion for mounting on a sloped roof; anda hood portion protruding from the planar flashing portion such that the substantially planar flashing portion surrounds the hood portion, the hood portion defining an open cavity that is unobstructed from an underside opening in the flashing to an inside surface of the hood portion so as to fit over a cut-down roof vent pipe and having a plurality of vent openings disposed on an up-roof side of the hood portion when mounted on the roof and adapted to permit airflow into and out of the hood portion, wherein the replacement flashing is a single unitary component,wherein the hood portion comprises an outwardly curved top-most surface that is closed and one or more side surfaces that are angled towards the closed top surface, wherein the plurality of vent openings are disposed on the one or more angled side surfaces, andwherein the plurality of vent openings comprise a series of louvered openings, each having a louver angled toward a roof-down direction when the flashing is mounted on the roof. 2. The exhaust gas replacement flashing of claim 1 wherein the plurality of vent openings are configured to open towards a down-roof direction when the substantially planar flashing portion is mounted on the roof. 3. The exhaust gas replacement flashing of claim 2 wherein the plurality of vent openings comprise a plurality of elongated slots. 4. The exhaust gas replacement flashing of claim 3 wherein the plurality of elongated slots are arranged to extend in a transverse direction from the roof surface when the exhaust gas replacement flashing is disposed thereon. 5. The exhaust gas replacement flashing of claim 1 wherein the one or more side surfaces comprises a continuous surface extending about the hood portion. 6. The exhaust gas replacement flashing of claim 5 wherein the hood portion is formed in a generally oval or pill shape elongated along a slope direction of the roof when mounted thereon. 7. The exhaust gas replacement flashing of claim 5 wherein the hood portion is formed in a generally circular shape along a direction of the roof surface when mounted thereon. 8. The exhaust gas replacement flashing of claim 1 wherein the series of louvered openings are spaced away from an uppermost portion of the one or more side surfaces in an up-roof direction when the flashing is mounted on the roof. 9. The exhaust gas replacement flashing of claim 1 wherein the substantially planar flashing portion is of a generally rectangular shape so as to be suitable for interleaving or overlapping with one or more shingles of the roof surface when mounted thereon. 10. The exhaust gas replacement flashing of claim 1 wherein the hood portion and the substantially planar flashing are separate components fixedly coupled together. 11. The exhaust gas replacement flashing of claim 1 further comprising: a screen disposed within an interior of the hood portion so as to inhibit passage of debris and insects through the plurality of vent openings into the hood portion. 12. The exhaust gas replacement flashing of claim 1 wherein the hood portion further comprises a weep hole disposed at or near where the one or more side surfaces meet the substantially planar flashing portion in a down-roof side of the hood portion and that opens in a down-roof direction to allow drainage of any water within the hood portion. 13. An exhaust vent replacement flashing for use with a roof mounted photovoltaic system comprising: a substantially flat flashing portion for mounting on a sloped roof; anda raised hood portion protruding from the flashing portion such that the flashing portion surrounds the raised hood portion, wherein the hood portion defining an open cavity that is unobstructed from an underside opening in the flashing to an inside surface of the hood portion so as to fit over and receive a section of exhaust gas vent pipe protruding through a roof surface, the hood portion comprising a closed top surface and one or more side surfaces and having a plurality of vent openings disposed in the one or more side surfaces that are adapted to permit airflow into and out of the hood portion, wherein the plurality of vent openings comprise a series of louvered openings, each having a louver angled towards a roof-down direction when the flashing is mounted on the roof such that a series of vent openings of the plurality that are disposed on an up-roof side of the hood portion open towards a down-roof direction when the substantially planar flashing portion is mounted on the roof. 14. The exhaust gas replacement flashing of claim 13, wherein the exhaust gas replacement flashing is a single stamped sheet metal component. 15. The exhaust gas replacement flashing of claim 13, wherein the plurality of vent openings comprise all vent openings on the flashing, wherein at least a majority of the plurality of vent openings are disposed on the up-roof side of the hood portion. 16. The exhaust gas replacement flashing of claim 15, wherein the hood portion further comprises a weep hole disposed at or near where the one or more side surfaces meet the substantially planar flashing portion in a down-roof side of the hood portion and that opens in a down-roof direction to allow drainage of any water within the hood portion. 17. The exhaust gas replacement flashing of claim 16, wherein the hood portion is generally circular, or a generally oval or pill shape elongated along a slope direction of the roof when mounted thereon.
