Fakro Flashings

Fakro Flashings are an essential component for anyone looking to install roof windows or skylights effectively. These products are designed to ensure a watertight seal between the roof window and the roofing material, which is vital for preventing leaks and ensuring the durability of both the window and the roof. In this category, we explore the different types of Fakro Flashings available at Insulation4Less, each tailored for specific roofing materials and profiles.

EPV Plain Tile Flashing

The FAKRO EPV Plain Tile Flashing is an excellent choice for plain tiles up to 16mm thickness. This flashing integrates seamlessly with the tiles, providing an effective barrier against water penetration. It's ideal for standard plain tiles, making it a popular choice for residential roofing projects where aesthetics and functionality are key considerations.

EHN-A Flashing for Profiled Tiles

For those with profiled tiles, the FAKRO EHN-A Flashing is an ideal solution. Designed specifically for tiles with a profile depth of up to 90mm, this flashing ensures a snug fit and superior protection against the elements. It's particularly well-suited for roofs with larger, more pronounced tile profiles, offering a blend of durability and a visually appealing finish.

ELV Slate Flashing

The FAKRO ELV Slate Flashing is tailored for natural, non-interlocking slate roofs. It's a perfect match for the thinner and flatter profile of slate, ensuring that the integrity of the slate roofing is maintained while providing the necessary protection. This flashing type is essential for preserving the classic look of slate roofs while adding the functionality of a roof window.

EZV-A Flashing for Profiled Tiles

Lastly, the FAKRO EZV-A Flashing is designed for profiled tiles with a profile depth of up to 45mm. This product is a versatile solution for a wide range of profiled tile roofs, providing a secure and watertight seal. It's a great option for those with moderately profiled tiles, offering a balance between adaptability and performance.

Guidance for Selection

When selecting the appropriate Fakro Flashing, it's important to consider the type of roofing material and the profile depth of your tiles or slate. Ensure that the flashing you choose is compatible with the dimensions and type of your roofing material for optimal performance. Remember, the right flashing not only enhances the durability of your roof window but also contributes to the overall aesthetics of your roofing.
