Fakro ELV-T Standard Depth Thermo Flashing Kit for Slate up to 10mm
The Fakro ELV-T Standard Depth Thermo Flashing Kit is designed to provide a secure, watertight and thermally efficient installation for compatible Fakro roof windows fitted into roofs covered with non-interlocking slate up to 10mm thick. Its integrated insulation helps reduce thermal bridging around the roof window, making it a particularly useful choice for projects where maintaining good thermal performance is important.
Combining effective weather protection with additional thermal insulation, the ELV-T provides a practical solution for slate-roofed properties, including installations in areas that experience colder temperatures or heavy snowfall.
Designed for Non-Interlocking Slate
The ELV-T has been specifically developed for non-interlocking natural or man-made slate up to 10mm thick. Its standard-depth design provides a reliable connection between the compatible roof window and surrounding slate, helping protect the roof opening from water ingress.
Using the correct flashing for the roofing material is important for achieving a secure and weather-resistant installation, and the ELV-T is tailored specifically to suit this type of slate roofing.
Thermal Insulation to Reduce Heat Loss
One of the key benefits of the ELV-T is its integrated thermal insulation. The thermo-insulated design helps reduce thermal bridging around the roof window, supporting a more energy-efficient roof construction.
When used together with the XDK insulation kit, the ELV-T can improve the U-value by up to 15%, depending on the type and size of the roof window. This can make it a useful addition to installations where thermal performance is a priority.
Suitable for a Wide Range of Roof Pitches
The Fakro ELV-T can be used on roof pitches ranging from 15° to 90°, providing flexibility for a wide range of pitched roof applications. This broad compatibility allows it to be used across many different roof designs and installation requirements.
Professional RAL 7022 Finish
The flashing is finished in RAL 7022, giving it a subtle and professional appearance that blends neatly with the surrounding roof covering. The understated finish helps maintain a clean appearance once the roof window and flashing have been installed.
