over-fascia roof space ventilation in a simple weatherproof
system. This system eliminates the need for a tilting fillet and
reduces the required height of the fascia board.

Tile Ventilation
Roadstone Vent Tiles are an unobtrusive means of
incorporating ventilation within the roof slope at high or low
level. They can be used for soil pipe or mechanical ventilation.
When used for mechanical ventilation a condensation trap
should be inserted.
