Constituents of the Flashing
The flashing is made up of four basic elements (lower element, two sides elements and top element). A long and wide elastic apron finishing is the lower element which allows easy connection with high profiled roof coverings. The lower element has a plastic mat glued to the underside thus allowing the flashing to adhere to the roof covering for a neat fit. The flashing side-sealing channels factory equipped with sponge seals provide protection against windblown dust, leaves, rain and snow. The flashing is equipped with a weep flap to allow condensation to drain away from the window.
