185 Fascia

Notes:

• 90x45 soffit bearer used unless stated.
• Soffit bearers fixed to right or left hand side of rafter.
• 10mm clearance allowed for soffit.

Fascia brackets must be fitted to all rafters. The installation of gutter brackets and snow straps in snow areas is to be as per section 3.1.4.7 of the Dimond manual. Snow areas N4 and N5 require 5 fasteners per Rafter bracket.

Note for Installers

1. To ensure birds cannot enter the roof space, there should be no gap between the bottom purlin and the back face of the gutter after the system has been installed.
   
2. NOTE: Soffit bearers are required on all hip corners and should be cut back 10mm.
3. Where loose fill insulation is used, the soffit must be blocked off at the top plate to prevent the insulation coming into contact with the metal fascia.
4. Zincalume coated gutters should have a minimum fall of at least 1:500 and should not have permanent ponding. Check with your nearest distributor for further details.

Notes for Installers

1. To ensure birds cannot enter the roof space, there should be no gap between the bottom purlin and the back face of the gutter after the system has been installed.
2. 185mm External Fascia and Gutter is not suitable on concrete tile roofs with sloping soffits.
3. NOTE: Soffit bearers are required on all hip corners and should be cut back 10 mm.
4. The use of concrete tiles on the barge ends is not a recommended practice as highlighted in the NZ Metal Roofing and Cladding Code of Practice Section 2 under
   Compatibility 2.7.2. Should people continue to use this method then there should be some sort of barrier between the two and there is no warranty offered by
   Pacific Coil Coaters or New Zealand Steel for corrosion if this method is used. This means that all installations should have a bottom batten around the edge of the roof line rather than let the concrete tile rest on the fascia.
5. Where loose fill insulation is used, the soffit must be blocked off at the top plate to prevent the insulation coming into contact with the metal fascia.
6. Zincalume coated gutters should have a minimum fall of at least 1:500 and should not have permanent ponding. Check with your nearest distributor for further details.
