UV roof protectors
The roof cowl comes with two black UV injection moulded pipe sections for covering and
protecting the white flue pipe from UV damage.
To install, click together and if required cut to length. If for some reason any remaining white
pipe is exposed to UV, this should be painted with a suitable UV resistant coating.
Important
When installing the UV protectors it is critical that the protector sits outside the decktite, not
inside. Weathertightness will be an issue if the protector is installed inside the decktite.

Cutting to size

Pipes overlap by approximately 37 mm. Once joined the effective length reduces by
37 mm. This needs to be factored when cutting to size. Add 2 x 37 mm to extension pipe X.
The inner pipe must always extend 10 mm beyond the outer pipe in the male end of the flue.
Always cut the male end of the flue and not the female end. Deburr sharp edges as this could
damage the gasket resulting in a system that is no longer air-tight.
