Product Information

Full details

The Ubbink Over Fascia Vent (25mm air gap) is designed for roofing contractors and DIY homeowners looking to ensure adequate roof ventilation while meeting building regulation requirements. By providing an airflow of 25,000mm² per metre, it effectively prevents condensation and mould growth in roof voids; however, it requires precise installation during the fascia board preparation phase to ensure a secure fit under the roofing felt.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Does this vent fit all roof types?

Yes, it is designed to be compatible with all common tile and slate roofing profiles.

What is the equivalent air gap provided?

This product provides a 25mm equivalent air gap.

How many units are in the package?

This product is supplied as a pack of 5.

Can I install this on an existing roof?

It is difficult to install on an existing roof without lifting the bottom row of tiles and the felt, as it must be nailed to the fascia board under the felt.

Does the mesh restrict airflow?

The mesh is designed to keep pests out while maintaining the required 25,000mm² of airflow per metre.

What material is the vent made from?

It is made from durable, high-quality plastic designed for exterior roofing applications.

Troubleshooting

Airflow seems restricted

Check that the roofing felt has not sagged or been installed too tightly over the vent opening.

Difficulty securing to fascia

Ensure the fascia board is level and use appropriate fixings that do not crack the vent material.

Pests appearing in roof space

Inspect the integrated mesh for tears; if the mesh is damaged, the section must be replaced to restore the pest barrier.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Meets industry standard for roof void ventilation
  • Prevents pest ingress with built-in mesh
  • Works with both slate and tile roofing
  • Easy to install directly to the fascia board
  • Durable design for long-term protection

Cons

  • Requires installation before roofing felt
  • Not suitable for retrofitting without removing roof edges
  • Pack size may not cover large roofing runs

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation should occur during the fascia board mounting process. Position the vent along the top edge of the fascia board, ensuring the profile sits flush. Secure the vent using appropriate corrosion-resistant nails through the designated fixing points. Ensure the roofing felt or membrane is laid over the top of the vent flap to direct water into the gutter. No ongoing maintenance is required, but it is good practice to inspect the vents during periodic roof surveys to ensure the mesh remains free of debris or heavy dust accumulation.
