Product Information

Full details

The Freefoam Vented Soffit Board (GPBV300) is designed for homeowners and professional installers looking to secure and ventilate roof overhangs with a durable, maintenance-free solution. Measuring 300mm in width and 10mm in thickness, this PVC-u profile facilitates consistent airflow into the roof void to prevent condensation buildup and protect against pests. While it provides an excellent balance of function and aesthetics for pitched roofs, users should note that its ventilation efficiency is specifically rated for roof pitches of 30 degrees or greater.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Can I use this on a flat roof?

No, this product is specifically designed for pitched roofs of 30 degrees or more to ensure adequate airflow.

Does this board protect against insects?

Yes, the integrated slots are sized to provide airflow while preventing entry for common pests and birds.

How long is each board?

Each board is supplied in a standard 5-meter length.

Do I need to paint these boards?

No, the white PVC-u finish is UV-stable and does not require painting.

What is the warranty period?

The product is backed by a 10-year manufacturer guarantee.

What tools are required for installation?

You will need a measuring tape, a fine-toothed saw for cutting, and non-corrosive fixings like stainless steel nails.

Troubleshooting

Board appears slightly bowed after installation

Ensure that the board is supported by rafters at intervals not exceeding 600mm.

Difficulty cutting through the PVC-u cleanly

Use a sharp, fine-toothed hand saw or a power jigsaw with a blade designed for plastics to avoid splintering the edges.

Staining on the surface

Use a non-abrasive household cleaner or a dedicated PVC restorer to remove surface grime.

10-year manufacturer guarantee ensures long-term reliability

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To install, measure the distance from the wall plate to the fascia board and trim the 5-meter lengths using a fine-toothed saw. Secure the boards using stainless steel nails or screws, ensuring they are fixed at every support rafter. For compatibility, this board works best with standard PVC-u fascia systems of similar thickness. Care is simple: wash the boards annually with warm soapy water and a soft cloth to remove atmospheric pollutants. Avoid using abrasive sponges or solvents, as these can dull the PVC finish over time.
