Glidevale package meets re-roofing standards

Glidevale's combination of Protect VP400 vapour permeable underlay, Rediroll ridge ventilation system and loft traps ensure a dry, ventilated roofspace, particularly in re-roofing programmes.

Glidevale's Protect VP400 is vapour permeable, watertight, strong, lightweight, easy to cut, fully UV and heat resistant and certificatied for unrestricted use with regard to wind uplift, regardless of geographical location within the UK.

Glidevale Rediroll universal dry fix ventilated ridge and hip system's aluminium construction makes it rot proof and corrosion resistant.

Its design incorporates integral ventilation inlets to ensure adequate throughflow of air along the ridge and hip, yet resists penetration by driving rain.

It is quicker to install than alternative ridge ventilation systems, eliminating issues of the quality of workmanship in using mortar, and can be fitted regardless of weather conditions while the work is undertaken.

It provides a maintenance free solution, removing the need for future re-pointing or re-bedding of the ridge tiles.

Glidevale loft traps meet the air leakage requirements of BS5250 and the minimum U value requirements of Building Regulations of Part L: LA1, LA2, LA5 and LA6 loft traps, when specified with rigid insulation, all achieve a U value of 0.35W/m2K.
