25mm Hardie Plank Top Ventilation Strip, 3m
The 25mm Hardie™ Ventilation Profile (Product Code: 5300185) is a universal trim used to protect the 20mm air cavity at both the top and bottom of your cladding. While it is often used at the head of a wall to let air out, it is also frequently used at the base of Hardie™ VL Plank installations to "mesh off" the gap behind the starter profile.
This profile is a multi-purpose trim designed for any area where your cladding system needs to breathe while remaining secure. It is most commonly used along the soffit line at the top of a wall, underneath window cills, and across window and door heads. By installing it in these key areas, you ensure a continuous airflow loop that prevents dampness from building up around your structural openings and roofline Maintaining this airflow is vital for correct installation. It fits flush against standard 25mm timber battens, providing a clean finish that keeps your cavity clear and dry.
