High pivot roof window FAKRO FYP-V U3 proSky | wood in natural colour

Roof window FYP-V U3 proSky is a pivot window, but its axis of rotation is situated above the centre of the window, so even a tall person can easily walk up to the window edge. The lower part of the sash fulfils a top hung window function and the upper part of the sash is an additional source of daylight. The only window on the market when installed in roofs with pitches 39° – 43° satisfies the requirements of DIN5034-1 standard, according to which the bottom window edge has to be situated 95cm above the floor level and the top minimum 220 cm. The sash when opened in position from 0° to 45° degrees is supported by innovative supporting mechanism enabling to leave the sash open in any position within this range. At the bottom part of the frame the window is equipped with a two step micro-opening facilty. In the event of washing, the sash is locked at angle of 160° by a sliding bolt.

FAKRO FYP-V U3 takfönster is equipped with V40 air-inlet, which enables air inflow even with the takfönster closed. At a pressure difference of 10 Pa air inlet capacity is up to 49m³/h depending upon the takfönster width. The capacity rises up to the point where the optimum value is achieved. If the pressure difference continues to grow, the airflow capacity stays on the same stable level. The elastic, pneumatic flap deflects, limiting the amount of inflowing air by reducing the air inlet duct area. Such situations occur in the winter time or when strong gusts of wind appear. FAKRO air inlets are equipped with a continuous adjustment facility with an option of complete air inlet closing. If air inlet is closed it simply does not function (this rule applies to automatic air inlet as well) and FYP-V takfönster achieves air tightness Class III according to EN12207 norm.

Flashings

Flashings are essential for the correct installation of roof windows. Precisely designed flashing details ensure a durable and neat fit with the roofing material used. The purpose of flashing is to ensure good drainage away from the window and to provide protection from the elements.
