Before you buy and install
Measure your roof opening carefully to confirm it matches the FK06 size of 66x118cm. Check that your roof pitch falls within the recommended range for this window model. Ensure you have adequate roof structure and rafter spacing to accommodate the window frame. You will need to purchase a separate flashing kit appropriate to your roof covering type (slate, tile, or sheet materials) and your roof pitch. Plan for internal and external finishing around the window opening. If you are not experienced with roof work, consider hiring a qualified installer, as improper installation can lead to water ingress and structural issues.
- Verify roof opening dimensions match FK06 size (66x118cm)
- Check roof pitch compatibility before ordering
- Purchase correct flashing kit for your roof covering and pitch separately
- Plan for internal and external finishing materials
- Professional installation recommended for roof work
Operation and maintenance
The top control bar is the primary operating mechanism. Push it upward to open the window fully, or pull it to the intermediate position for ventilation without full opening. The 180-degree rotation feature allows you to safely clean the outer glass from inside by rotating the sash. The removable ventilation filter should be checked regularly and cleaned or replaced as needed to maintain airflow and protect against dust and insects. The glazing is toughened and laminated for safety, and the UV filter helps protect furnishings from sun damage. No special maintenance is required beyond occasional filter cleaning and standard frame care appropriate to pine wood.
