The introduction coincides with the publication of new NHBC recommendations on high-level ventilation to prevent condensation problems in cold roofs.
Uni-Vent Rapid Ridge pack is compatible with either Half Round or Universal Angle ridge tiles and provides 10 metres of mechanically fixed, ventilated ridge. The result is a quick and easy-to-install system that combines Redland’s technical excellence with a universal application.
The Uni-Vent Rapid Ridge is one of a number of competitively priced components that Redland is launching into the market - a range that currently includes both Spirtech 100 and Rapid Roof Vents.
The new NHBC recommendations, published in January 2011, identify the need for ridge-level ventilation in all cold roofs. The change has been introduced in response to a growing acknowledgement of the problem of condensation in cold roofs, exacerbated by recent cold winters.
