ROOF VENT WITH AN INTEGRATED FAN

摘要

A roof vent member with an integrated fan assembly is disclosed. The roof vent member includes an upper plate having fasteners that extend downward below a roof deck when installed to allow for access to the fan assembly from underneath the roof deck. Thus, the fan assembly may be installed, removed, replaced, maintained, etc. from underneath the roof without having to get on the roof or otherwise disrupt the roof envelope. The roof vent may include the upper plate, a subflashing, the fan assembly, sealing elements, screens, and other features. A secondary roof vent member may be included which may include solar panels. Associated methods of using the vent members, such as installing, removing, and replacing the vent member or various components thereof, are further disclosed.
