Roofing underlays reduce the wind load on the roof tiles by taking some of the wind load. Figure 2 above illustrates how the underlay should be fitted so that it is not stretched to touch the underside of the roof tiles when under pressure from wind. If ballooning or streching does occur, the full wind load may be transferred to the roof tiles. Underlay laps must be sealed to avoid differential wind pressure. The current Code of Practice recommends the use of an additional timber batten installed over the horizontal lap between underlay courses as a preventative measure, although many roofers feel this is a trip hazard. The European Standard does not cover this issue so even underlays that are CE marked may not comply with the new Code of Practice. Under the new Code of Practice there is a single test to measure the wind uplift resistance for underlays. All testing bodies will now follow this test. Envirolay Premier Roofers’ HR Underlay complies with and exceeds the requirements of the test.
