Product 1137

Provides ventilation equivalent to a continuous 10mm opening (10,000mm2 per metre run). 

Product 1138 

Provides ventilation equivalent to a continuous 25mm opening (25,000mm2 per metre run). 

Both products are supplied in 2.4m lengths.

  • Use product 1137 to ventilate pitched roofs, where the pitch of the roof is 15 degrees or more, and the roof void is attic or loft space.
  • Use product 1138 to ventilate pitched roofs, where the pitch of the roof is less than 15 degrees, flat roofs or any roof where living accommodation is contained within the roof space.
  • Ideally the soffit board should be 6mm in thickness. Thicker boards up to 9mm can be accommodated with care, but it may be necessary to chamfer the edge of the board to make installation easier.
  • Ensure the ventilator is fixed securely to the back of the fascia board using all the fixing holes provided. Screws are preferable, but nails may be used with care.
  • Ventilation must be provided for the full length of the eaves and along both sides of the building to create a cross flow ventilation action.
  • Determine whether the roof design requires ventilation equivalent to a continuous 10mm opening (product 1137), or 25mm opening (product 1138).
  • Specify which colour is preferred.
  • Measure the overall length of the eaves to be ventilated and divide by 2.4m to determine the number of lengths required.
