TapcoSlate Black Cowl Vent

TapcoSlate Black Cowl Vent

The TapcoSlate Black Cowl Vent is a discreet and practical way to introduce ventilation through the roof slope while maintaining the appearance of a traditional slate or tile roof. Designed for use with TapcoSlate roofing, this cowl and soaker slate ventilator forms an integral part of the roof covering and can be incorporated during the normal slating process.

Effective Roof Slope Ventilation

The TapcoSlate Black Cowl Vent is particularly useful where eaves or ridge ventilation cannot be installed, or where a more complex roof design makes effective cross ventilation difficult to achieve. It can be positioned at either a low or high level on the roof slope, providing a flexible ventilation option for a range of roof constructions.

Compact and Easy to Install

Designed to provide the required airflow without creating a visually intrusive feature, the cowl ventilator is one of the smallest available for its air capacity. It is simply fitted as part of the normal slating process, making installation straightforward for roofing professionals. The ventilator is available in Black and is suitable for roof pitches between 15° and 60°. An adaptor is also available when the vent needs to be connected to pipework.

Airflow and Ventilation Options

The TapcoSlate Black Cowl Vent is available with both 10k and 20k airflow units, giving you options to suit different ventilation requirements. It can also be easily converted for use as an SVP (soil and vent pipe) terminal or as a mechanical extract terminal, adding further versatility to the product.

Key Features

The TapcoSlate Black Cowl Vent provides a neat roof ventilation solution that combines functionality with a low-profile appearance. It is suitable for roof pitches from 15° to 60°, available in Black, and can be installed as part of the standard slating process. An optional adaptor allows pipework to be connected where required, while the availability of 10k and 20k airflow units means the system can be selected according to the ventilation needs of the roof. Its compact design also helps keep the finished roof looking neat and unobtrusive.

Roof Tiles & Fittings:

We recommend ordering an additional 10% of roof tiles to allow for any breakages that may occur during delivery or handling. Roof tiles are naturally fragile, and having a few extra on site helps prevent delays and ensures your roofing project can be completed without interruption.
