Description

Factory assembled insulating rooflights (FAIRs) for use with composite panel roof and wall systems.

Features and benefits:

  • Designed to provide compliance with Building Regulations Part L2 (England and Wales), Section 6 of the Technical Handbook (Scotland) and Technical Booklet F2 (Northern Ireland)
  • Optional internal core can be specified to provide a U-value as low as 0.87 W/m²K.
  • Standard GRP sheet range is a standard chopped strand glass matt reinforced polymer laminate.
  • DR (double reinforced) GRP sheet range consists of a standard chopped strand glass matt and a stitch woven glass reinforcement layer.
  • DR sheets are thinner and lighter laminates with strength characteristics of a heavier standard sheet, improving profile definition which aids sealing at side and end laps.
