Find out moreThis FAKRO flashing has been designed specifically for standard FAKRO windows that are installed on a slate roof in a recessed style, allowing the FAKRO window to sit within the roofline.
The FAKRO flashing for installing standard FAKRO windows recessed in slate roofs is manufactured from aluminium, with a protective polyester coating for extra durability. The flashing is then finished in a brown grey shade (RAL 7022), which helps it to blend in with most roof coverings.
This FAKRO flashing can be used with slate products that are up to 10mm thick, when a recessed window is desired. Slate products that are suitable for use with this flashing include traditional natural slates, as well as fibre cement slate products produced by brands such as Marley.
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 standard roof window.
