These FAKRO flashings have been designed specifically for use with standard 55 x 78cm FAKRO conservation windows installed on a slate roof.
This FAKRO flashing can be used with slate products that are up to 10mm thick. Slates that are suitable for use with this FAKRO flashing include, but are not limited to, natural slate from Redland, fibre cement slate products from Marley, including Rivendale and Thrutone, Britslate from Sandtoft, and more.
The FAKRO flashings have been manufactured from aluminium in a ridged design, which allows for malleability around the slate and tile profiles. The flashing is then coated in a polyester covering, to add durability, before being finished in black (RAL9005), creating a subtle finish which tends to fit in with most roof colourings.
FAKRO conservation windows are roof windows that have been designed specifically for use in conservation areas and areas where there are more detailed planning restrictions in place. FAKRO conservation windows have been designed to pass these planning restrictions where most roof windows would be rejected.
FAKRO conservation windows are designed with a black vertical bar in the centre of the window pane and black cladding. This bar not only makes it more suitable for traditional construction, but also helps to ensure it remains in keeping with more period and historic properties.
Flashings are an integral part of the installation of a FAKRO window, and although often disregarded, are incredibly important.
Flashings are used to create a tight connection between the roof window and the roof slates, ensuring that the window is fitted accurately, creating a neat finish.
However, the FAKRO flashing is not just used for visual effect, the flashing is also used to protect the window from weather conditions, creating efficient rainwater drainage with the ridged design, and preventing water entry at the points where the window connects to the roof.
By installing FAKRO flashings on your slate roof, you are eliminating the potential for water to penetrate the roof, which prevents damp, condensation and structural issues from occurring over time. FAKRO flashings also help to increase the lifespan of the roof and the conservation roof window.
