All you need to know about a VELUX Profile Set

The VELUX ZWC Window Profile Set is for use with on-site flashing and is to be used with the installation of a VELUX window on a non-standard roofing material like felt, zinc, lead etc.

 A special head flashing (see below) will be supplied which hooks over the top hood section and overlaps the roofing material. The special head flashing is made from aluminium (matching colour to the profile of window) and will work with the side and bottom frame covers which are supplied with the window.
