VELUX Standard Flashings 94x160cm EDW PK10 0000
What this product is and who needs it
VELUX Standard Flashings are essential components for installing VELUX EDW roof vents. They sit between the roof structure and the vent unit, creating a watertight seal that prevents rain and moisture from entering the building. These flashings are needed by anyone installing or replacing VELUX EDW roof vents in timber-framed roofs, whether you are a professional installer or a competent DIY user undertaking roof work.
- Vinyl construction provides flexible, durable weatherproofing
- 10mm thickness offers robust protection against water penetration
- Pack of 10 units allows for multiple vent installations
Compatibility and sizing
These flashings are specifically designed for VELUX EDW roof vents and are sized at 94cm wide by 160cm long to provide a snug fit around the standard vent opening. They are compatible with timber roof structures graded F16 and F24. Before ordering, confirm that your roof timbers meet these grades and that you are installing VELUX EDW vents, as this flashing is engineered for this specific vent model.
- Suitable for timber grades F16 and F24 only
- Dimensions 94×160cm match standard VELUX EDW vent openings
- Not suitable for other roof vent brands or models
Pre-installation checks
Before fitting, inspect the roof opening to ensure it is the correct size for a standard VELUX EDW vent and that the surrounding timber is in good condition and matches the F16 or F24 grade specification. Check that the roof structure is sound and that there are no signs of rot, damage, or previous water ingress around the proposed installation area. Ensure you have the correct VELUX EDW vent unit to accompany this flashing, and that all necessary roof weatherproofing materials and fixings are available.
- Verify roof opening dimensions match VELUX EDW standard size
- Confirm timber grades F16 or F24 in the installation area
- Inspect for existing damage, rot, or water staining
- Ensure VELUX EDW vent unit is available and compatible
