Fakro EZA Low Pitch Flashing Kit for Profiled Tile and Interlocking Slate up to 45mm
The Fakro EZA Low Pitch Flashing Kit for Profiled Tile and Interlocking Slate up to 45mm is specially designed for roof windows installed on lower-pitched roofs. It provides a secure and watertight connection between the roof window and surrounding profiled tiles or interlocking slate, helping rainwater flow efficiently away from the window.
Designed for Low-Pitched Roofs
The EZA flashing kit is suitable for roofs with pitches from 10° to 75°, making it a practical choice for a wide range of roof designs. Its low-pitch design helps overcome the challenges associated with installing roof windows on roofs with a shallow angle, where effective water drainage is particularly important.
Improved Water Drainage
One of the key features of the EZA is its ability to increase the pitch of the roof window by 10° at the top. The raised pitch then gradually transitions back to the normal roof pitch, helping rainwater drain smoothly over the flashing and away from the window. This design provides additional protection against water ingress while maintaining a neat connection with the existing roof covering.
Suitable for Tiles and Interlocking Slate
The EZA Low Pitch Flashing Kit is designed for use with profiled tiles and interlocking slate with a profile height of up to 45mm. This allows the flashing to sit securely around the roof window while accommodating the shape and profile of the surrounding roof covering.
Please note that the EZA flashing kit is not suitable for use with Forticrete Centurion when installed on roof pitches between 10° and 20°. The roof covering and pitch should therefore be checked carefully before selecting the flashing kit.
Neat and Versatile Finish
Finished in RAL7022, the Fakro EZA provides a subtle, modern appearance that blends neatly with a variety of roof finishes. Its design combines practical weather protection with a clean finish, making it suitable for both new roof window installations and suitable replacement projects.
