Universal GRP Dry Valley

A roof valley is formed where two roof slopes come together. It can be one of the most vulnerable parts of a roof’s weatherproofing, as it is prone to debris build-ups and poor drainage, which can lead to water infiltration.

  • Dry fix, mortar free system
  • Durable GRP technology
  • Simple and fast installation
  • Can accommodate up to a 20° pitch variance either side of the valley
  • Performs on pitches up to 60°
  • Gives a finished appearance of a close cut roof

Description

GRP dry valley troughs help to mitigate these problems, providing a clear and continuous path for efficient rainwater discharge.

Marley’s GRP dry valley troughs are compatible with our entire range of clay and concrete roofing tiles and give the appearance of a closed-cut roof. They provide a lightweight and reliable alternative to traditional zinc valleys and are suitable for dry-fix installation. GRP dry valley troughs are also easy to install, as they are simply nailed in place.

Two GRP valley trough options are available: high profile and low profile. Both are provided in lengths of 3,000mm and are easy to cut to size.

Provides weathertight ventilation in the roof slope

Provides up to 10,000mm² free area of ventilation

For natural, mechanical or soil pipe ventilation

For use with all concrete plain and interlocking tiles
