Glidevale Protect has unveiled a new 15-year product warranty on its pitched roofing underlays and ventilation products when used as a complete system where integrated in-roof photovoltaic (PV) panels are installed.
The product warranty extends to Glidevale Protect’s full range of vapour permeable and impermeable pitched roof underlays, plus its high and low level ventilation products. Under the warranty, Glidevale Protect will replace any products verified to be defective on a like-for-like or nearest equivalent basis for up to 15 years.
Matt Neary from Glidevale Protect said: “Roof designs can be complex, for example with the increasing popularity of integrated in-roof solar PV panels. It’s imperative that the correct underlay and ventilation strategy is implemented to minimise the risk of harmful condensation forming and therefore the potential of rotting roof timbers. Our technical team can offer guidance on a full roof ventilation strategy to suit the specific parameters of each project.
“Our new 15-year product warranty provides specifiers with the assurance that our roofing materials are manufactured to the highest quality and designed to last the lifetime of the roof, provided they are correctly installed in accordance with our fixing instructions.”
Glidevale Protect’s range of roofing underlays covered under the warranty includes its latest product, Protect A1 Solar, a heavy duty type HR impermeable roofing underlay designed to reduce condensation forming on the underside of integrated in-roof solar PV panels.
The roofing product warranty also extends to Glidevale Protect’s other vapour impermeable (type HR) roofing underlays and its vapour permeable (type LR) roofing underlays, the latter category which includes its air and vapour permeable roofing underlay.
The manufacturer’s high level ventilation products, Protect Fulmetal RediRoll and Protect Fulmetal UniRoll dry fix ridge and hip systems, plus its low level ventilation solutions, including SV soffit vents, OFV over fascia vents and RV rafter vents, are also covered by the warranty along with its full range of high and low level tile and slate vents. To qualify for the warranty, the roofing underlay must be used with appropriate high and low level ventilation products as part of a system package.
The warranty covers a period of 15 years and is effective from the date the products are purchased and then installed via a contractor, merchant or direct from a developer.
