Can a VELUX roof window leak?
VELUX roof windows use flashing kits that are specific to roof pitch and roofing material. Provided the proper VELUX flashing is used and installed correctly, we will guarantee the product against leaks for 10 years (excluding any blinds or electrical components). The unique construction of VELUX windows and flashings ensures safe drainage of rainwater from the roof above the window, providing complete weatherproofing and preventing leakage. Because the roofing material covers both the top and the sides, VELUX flashings are largely unobtrusive. VELUX flashings are compatible with virtually any type of roofing material, from standard covers such as slate and tile to corrugated sheeting or even thatch. VELUX undertakes extensive testing to ensure all products perform to the very highest standards. Windows and flashings are subjected to some of the world`s most stringent artificial rain and wind tests.
