Hi all. I am a building contractor in San Diego County, CA. Does anyone know where I can purchase lengths of pre-formed or otherwise manufactured ridge vent, the type that is formed sort of like a long, thin cupola-type thing?
I and the roofer checked about 5 places locally, w/out any luck. Thanks for any help!

George. Are you sayinmg that the places you visited had ridge vents but not the kind you wanted? GeneL.
*George - Are you looking for copper ridge cap? Or a true vent.Jeff
*George,From your post, it is a little hard to tell exactly what you are looking for. My first impression leads me to think that you might try a metal building supplier, either agricultural or commercial type, for some kind of ridge cap that may be close to what you are looking for. A good sheet metal shop could also fabricate what you need if you have a fairly good idea about what you are looking for and know what it needs to do. Good luck.
*the "cupola-type" reference is confusing me, too. a sketch to a good sheet metal shop would be my first try. Rich.
*george... you wouldn't be talking about the old "filter vent"... that was the original product of Shingle-vent...came in aluminum... zinc.. and even bronze...try this link and look for "Air vent"Airvent.com
*Mike;That was exactly the one! I can't believe what a great deal this website here is - and your link led me to two dealers w/in the county.Thanks Mike, and thanks to everyone for helping out!yours,George
