Installation and sealing
The flashing creates a secure, watertight seal around the rooflight frame to prevent water penetration. Position the flashing around the rooflight opening before securing the rooflight unit. Ensure the plastic flashing sits flush against the roof or wall surface and the timber frame. The durable plastic material is designed to withstand long-term weather exposure without degradation.
- Position flashing around rooflight opening before final fixing
- Ensure complete contact with roof or wall surface
- Check for gaps or misalignment before sealing
- Follow VELUX manufacturer installation instructions
Maintenance and durability
The plastic construction provides durable, long-term weather protection with minimal maintenance requirements. Periodically inspect the flashing to ensure the seal remains intact and there are no signs of water ingress around the rooflight frame. Clear any debris or moss growth from the flashing surface to maintain effective water drainage. The plastic material will not rot or corrode, making it a reliable choice for exposed roof and wall applications.
- Inspect flashing regularly for damage or separation
- Clear debris and moss to maintain water drainage
- Check for water staining or damp around the rooflight frame
