and trouble-free. Every component has been designed to fit a particular window<br />
size and ensure that installation is both reliable and durable.<br />

Even the most energy efficient window can lose some of its efficiency<br />
by not being installed and insulated correctly.<br />
VELUX installation products assist in meeting all current regulations for both<br />
renovation and new building in terms of conservation of energy and air tightness.<br />
Ensure a weather tight seal between the Roof Window and<br />
the roof.<br />
• Pleated material to ensure a flexible and tight seal to the underfelt of the roof,<br />
whatever its construction.<br />
• Made of diffusion open material that minimises the risk of condensation.<br />
• Comes with transverse drainage gutter to lead water safely and efficiently away<br />
from the window.<br />
• Welded corners on the underfelt collar ensure watertight and simple installation.<br />
• Custom-made to size of window.<br />
• 10 year VELUX guarantee.<br />
BBX<br />
Insulation Collar – BDX<br />
Vapour Barrier – BBX<br />
In order to reduce heat loss, the gap between the roof<br />
structure and the window frame needs to be insulated.<br />
• The BDX 2000 comprises three original VELUX installation products – Insulation<br />
Collar (BDX), Underfelt Collar (BFX) and drainage gutter. Together they seal and<br />
insulate around the window externally.<br />
• The Insulation Collar optimises the insulation around the window frame by<br />
preventing heat loss and eliminating cold bridges.<br />
• Makes positioning the window in the roof and installing the window a simple<br />
process.<br />
• Pleated Underfelt Collar (BFX) with welded corners included.<br />
• Custom made to fit window dimensions.<br />
• Click fittings ensure fast and accurate assembly of frame components.<br />
• The BDX cannot be used with EDN and EDJ recessed flashings.<br />
• 10 year VELUX guarantee.<br />
Prevent vapour and humidity from condensing in the roof<br />
construction.<br />
• Complete vapour barrier collar, fully welded in all corners.<br />
• Helps meet air tightness.<br />
• A fully welded rubber seal gasket with double pressure seal guarantees<br />
speedy installation and a vapour tight solution.<br />
• Reinforced corners for extra security against perforation.<br />
• VELUX installation tool helps fit the collar in a matter of minutes.<br />
• 10 year VELUX guarantee.<br />

The illustration shows that by not<br />
insulating around the window sufficiently,<br />
a great deal of energy can be lost around<br />
