What to Know About Installation Requirements?

Fitting the Flashing

The BA-EL-R fits around deck-mounted skylights and blends into your roof and underlayment. Before installing, check that the flashing fits your skylight, roof slope, and material. Use a water and ice shield with the flashing for a full leak-proof seal.

Installation Notes

  • Bottom Section: Peel protective tape off the rubber butyl seal on the bottom section, place against roof/frame, and nail into frame sides. Press firmly to activate seal.
  • Step Flashing Pieces: Interweave individual step flashing elements layer-by-layer with shingles or slate courses working upwards along each side of the skylight frame.
  • Top Flashing Section: Place and nail top section flush against the head of the skylight frame with no gap between flashing edges and underlayment.
  • Cladding Cover Profiles: Reattach frame side and top cladding cover profiles using provided screws to lock flashing components in place.
  • Clearances: Maintain a 2 3/8"" - 3 7/8"" (60 mm – 100 mm) clearance gap between upper roofing material and top flashing header
