Does the window come with a flashing kit?

No, the flashing kit is sold separately. You will need to choose a flashing kit that matches your specific roofing material for proper installation.

What is the benefit of the ventilation flap?

The ventilation flap allows for fresh air to enter the room even when the window is closed, providing continuous ventilation. It also includes a dust and insect filter to maintain air quality.

Troubleshooting

Window is difficult to open or close.

Check for any obstructions around the sash or handle. Ensure the window is within the recommended roof pitch range. If the issue persists, contact VELUX support.

Water leaks around the window.

Verify that the correct VELUX flashing kit for your roofing material has been installed properly. Inspect seals and ensure no debris is blocking drainage channels. Professional inspection may be required.

Ventilation flap is not working correctly.

Clean the dust and insect filter. Ensure the flap mechanism is not obstructed. Refer to the user manual for detailed filter cleaning steps.
