Roofs full of character with a familiar pattern are achieved with the PREFA rhomboid roof tile. It breathes new life into a traditional and well-established roof appearance, giving it a completely new modern definition. The material is modern too: the 0.7 mm-thick coil-coated aluminium ensures maximum durability and extreme weather resistance. The perfectly coordinated all-in-one system, the low weight and the proven flat lock installation technology ensure problem-free use on new roofs and renovations.

Notes
- The RAL values stated are merely approximate values (~), some of which may differ vastly from the original PREFA colour and, under certain circumstances, may not reflect the subjective perception of the colour.
- Above all for colour quality P.10, it is almost impossible to define values due to the surface structure.
- Plain aluminium: The guarantee does not cover surface appearance alterations caused by processing and environmental influences. Follow the instructions.
- Metallic colours may vary in shade.
- To identify exact colours for complementary components please consult original samples.

Do you have questions about the rhomboid roof tile 44 × 44?
Metal roofs can be integrated into the exterior lightning protection system in accordance with the standard ÖVE/ÖNORM EN 62305-3. PREFA flat band roof panels (Prefalz and Falzonal) are therefore permitted as a natural part of the arrester and PREFA small format components (roof tiles, shingle, roof panels, rhomboid roof tiles) as natural components of the conductor (installation of an additional arrester and connection to the earth). Some standards stipulate exceptions according to which, for example, property at increased risk (e.g. potentially explosive premises) must be specially designed. The integration of PREFA roof and façade systems in the exterior lightning protection system must therefore be planned depending on the specifics of property in question. Information on the necessity and type of lightning protection on a property can be obtained from a lightning protection system engineer or approved electrician. Find out more about lightning protection here.

Roofbuild up when using roof rhomboid tiles 44 × 44
PREFA aluminium roofs are preferably executed with a vetilated build up, whre the substrate and thermal insulation layer is separated by a ventilated gap. This means any occasional condensation can be wicked away again.
For the most part, the roof is ventilated, as can be seen in the first picture. However, the whole attic space can also be ventilated (second picture).
