Product Information
Full details
The Timloc 10K Slate Roof Vent is designed for professional roofers and homeowners looking to provide reliable extraction for soil pipes and extractor fans through slate roofing. Its primary benefit is a low-profile design that maintains the clean aesthetic of a traditional slate roof while meeting strict building regulations. The primary caveat is that, while versatile, it requires careful cutting and fitting to ensure a weather-tight seal around specific slate sizes.
