Pre-installation checks and preparation
Before fitting, inspect your roof structure to confirm the tile profile matches the kit specification. The flashing frame must align precisely with the existing tile profile to maintain weather resistance and proper water drainage. Ensure the roof opening is correctly sized and that the surrounding tiles are in good condition. Check that all components of the kit are present and undamaged, and review VELUX installation instructions to understand the alignment requirements specific to your tile profile.

- Inspect surrounding tiles for damage or deterioration
- Check all kit components are present before starting work
- Review VELUX installation guidance for your tile type
Water drainage and performance
This flashing system is specifically designed to maintain proper water drainage around the window opening whilst preserving the thermal performance of the installation. The EDW frame and BDX connector work together to shed water away from the window seal and back onto the roof surface, preventing water ingress. Correct installation is critical to achieve the weathertight seal and ensure long-term roof performance.
- Ensures weathertight seal around window opening
- Maintains proper water drainage across roof
- Preserves thermal performance of installation
- Protects roof integrity when correctly fitted
