Flashings for all roof types

VELUX has flashing types that fit every roofing material and window size. Each flashing is precision-made to fit the window and makes the installation quick and simple.

The VELUX roof windows can be installed in two installation heights, standard or recessed. Choose a flashing type for recessed installation (40 mm lower in the roof), if you want a better insulation effect and a more visually appealing installation.

Flashing sets for a flawless installation

All VELUX flashings are including the underfelt collar (type BFX) and insulation collar (type BDX) for a flawless installation.

Choose the Pro flashing set (1000 variant) that includes the BFX underfelt collar for a weather-proof installation. Or if you want added insulation, choose the Pro+ flashing set (2000 variant) that also includes the BDX insulation collar. Both flashing sets have been carefully designed to make every step of the installation process as simple as possible.

Insulation frame and underfelt collar

The insulation frame BDX insulates around the roof window frame, reducing heat loss and eliminating cold bridges. The combination of rigid and flexible foam ensures a tight, energy-efficient installation to the roof construction.

The flexible insulation frame can be compressed for quick installation.

The underfelt collar BFX ensures a perfect fit and watertight seal between the roof window, battens, and the roofing underfelt. It is easy to fit. Simply place on top of the roof window and unfold.

An adjustable and self-supporting drainage gutter is included in the BFX. This leads the water away from the head of the roof window if there is a leak above.

Vapour and airtight installation

Use the VELUX vapour barrier collar BBX for a vapour and airtight installation that prevents condensation forming in the roof construction. The vapour barrier collar fits perfectly and can easily be mounted into the groove of the window.

Interior lining

If you want a ready-made solution to complete the interior finish in the room, VELUX linings are easy to install and there is no need for additional painting. Made from durable PVC material, VELUX linings are water-resistant and maintenance-free and fit perfectly with the roof window. The unique design allows space for extra insulation material to prevent cold bridges.
