Tri mme rs
Step 1
Select the appropriate position on the roof as referred to in (Fig 1), ensuring the ventilator will
not be sheltered from the wind. Place the base flashing under the ridge cap.
Note: When selecting the position of the vent, the means of weather proofing needs to be
taken into account; the most efficient means is to locate the flashing under the ridge cap.
Step 2
Ensure that the flashing covers the corrugations or ribs equally, then mark a circle using the
flashing as a template. Cut hole. Once the hole has been cut, turn up the corrugations or pans.
Note: If the purlin spacing is greater than 600mm, trimmers may be required. Install the
trimmers between the purlins on either side of the opening (Fig 1). Do not cover the opening
(Fig 2).
Secure the flashing to the roof (for number of fasteners see Table 1). If trimmers are used
ensure the flashing is secured to the trimmers. It is recommended that an infill be used on the
low side of the flashing. Coat all fasteners with silicone to ensure they are weatherproof.
Step 3
When a Varipitch throat is being used, sit the Varipitch on the flashing and rotate the top and
bottom halves until the top of the Varipitch is level (horizontal); it is recommended that a level
be used (Fig 2). Fix the Varipitch to the flashing (for number of fasteners see Table 1).
Step 4
Secure the two halves of the Varipitch by inser ting self tapping screws or blind rivets into the
Varipitch clips. Run a bead of silicone around the inside of the Varipitch seam.
Note: DO NOT apply silicone to joint between flashing and Varipitch. This is a natural gutter to
release any trapped condensation.
Step 5
Fit the turbine to the Varipitch (Fig 3). Check that it is level and adjust by tilting if necessary.
Fasten the turbine to the top of the Varipitch (for number of fasteners see Table 1).
WARNING: DO NOT ATTEMPT T O INSTAL L UNIT WHEN POWER IS CONNECTED.
THE TURB INE WILL S PIN.
