Permavent Easy Slate

Low pitch system for slates

Description

The patented Easy Slate System provides a unique low pitch roofing solution for slate roofs.

What is the minimum pitch for Easy Slate?

Easy Slate enables roof slates to be installed on a pitch as low as 12° with natural slate and 10° with fibre cement slates. This opens up many opportunities for slate roof construction in domestic, commercial and heritage properties where slates no longer need to be ruled out when the ridge height has been restricted due to planning considerations. The Easy Slate system has been rigorously tested at the BRE.

How does Easy Slate work?

A low roof pitch can cause slates to fail to prevent the ingress of water due to capillary action between the slates. Easy Slate works by preventing water from permeating the slates by sealing the perp join.
