Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: The Danelaw RP3 is designed for direct installation onto roof valley battens. Ensure the battens are sound and correctly spaced before fixing the trough. The trough can be cut to the required length using appropriate tools for a precise fit. A mortar bonding strip is integrated, allowing for traditional mortar bedding where tiles meet the trough, ensuring a secure seal.
Compatibility: This trough is compatible with slates, flat tiles, and profiled tiles. It is suitable for roof pitches over 17.5°.
Care: The RP3 Open Tile Valley Trough requires minimal maintenance. Its smooth, UV-resistant surface resists the build-up of dirt and debris. Periodically inspect the trough and surrounding roof area for any obstructions or damage. Cleaning can be done with a damp cloth if necessary. Avoid using abrasive cleaners that could damage the finish.
