Full details
The Vented Soffit Board is an ideal solution for homeowners and professional contractors looking to secure roof overhangs while ensuring proper ventilation. This 150mm wide PVC-u profile provides a continuous 10mm air gap to prevent condensation and damp build-up within the roof space, effectively protecting the structural integrity of your roofline. While it offers a sleek, modern finish and extreme durability, users should note that it is specifically engineered for roofs pitched at 30 degrees or more, necessitating a check of your roof specifications before installation.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To install, ensure your roof pitch meets the 30-degree requirement to maintain the expected airflow performance. The boards can be easily cut using standard woodworking tools to fit specific lengths. When fastening, use compatible corrosion-resistant fixings to avoid future staining or rust streaks on the PVC surface.
Care is minimal; the surface can be wiped down with a soft, damp cloth and mild detergent to remove surface dust or grime. Avoid the use of abrasive cleaners or solvent-based chemicals, as these may damage the UV-resistant finish of the PVC-u material.
