Description

Type RAV-FL Roof Abutment Ventilators – Flat Roof Ventilation Solution
The Type RAV-FL Roof Abutment Ventilators are designed to provide a reliable and effective ventilation solution for flat roofs where they meet an existing cavity wall. Without proper ventilation, moisture can accumulate, leading to dampness and structural damage. The Type RAV-FL ensures consistent airflow at the abutment point, preventing condensation and maintaining a healthier roof space.

Why Choose Type RAV-FL Roof Abutment Ventilators?

  • Optimal Ventilation: Designed for effective roof abutment and flat roof ventilation.
  • Moisture Prevention: Prevents dampness by allowing air to circulate and moisture to escape.
  • Regulation Compliance: Helps meet Building Regulations for adequate roof ventilation.
  • Easy Installation: The preformed units are simple to install, reducing labour time.

Solve Dampness Issues with Type X Remedial Cavity Tray
When a pitched roof extension or conservatory is built against an existing cavity wall, relying solely on flashing is insufficient to prevent moisture ingress. The Type X Remedial Cavity Tray offers an effective damp-proofing solution by preventing water from permeating downward. Installation involves removing sections of masonry above the roofline, inserting the tray, and ensuring proper alignment for continuous moisture protection.
