No, this unit is specifically engineered for 16mm polycarbonate sheets.
The unit is pre-assembled, but you should verify the contents of your specific package for required fasteners.
It is not recommended, as specialized factory coatings are used to withstand UV rays and weathering.
The unit is designed for ventilation; please check the specific product packaging to confirm if an integrated screen is included.
While it can be a DIY project, it requires cutting into your roof, so professional assistance is recommended if you are not comfortable with roof work.
Check that the weather seals are compressed correctly and re-apply exterior-grade silicone sealant to any gaps.
Verify that all mounting fasteners are tightened securely and the vent is flush against the polycarbonate surface.
Clean the hinge tracks of any debris or dust and ensure the unit was installed perfectly square during the mounting process.
Installation involves replacing a section of your existing 16mm polycarbonate sheet. Always ensure the roof structure can support the vent before cutting. Use recommended sealants to guarantee a waterproof connection between the vent frame and the surrounding polycarbonate. For long-term care, clear the vent opening of leaves or twigs during autumn, and wipe down the frame with mild soapy water during your seasonal conservatory cleaning to keep the brown finish looking new.
