What powder coating options are available for the RSL?

The RSL comes standard with a mill finish on the exterior and a powder-coated interior. If you prefer the exterior to be powder-coated as well, we can provide this at an additional cost.

Does the powder coating on the RSL comply with BS EN 12206-1:2004?

Yes, the powder coating on the RSL complies with BS EN 12206-1:2004 standards.

What is the maximum roof pitch for the RSL?

The RSL can be installed on roofs with a maximum pitch of 15 degrees.

What are the main differences between the RSL and the RSL-R?

The RSL has several key differences from the RSL-R, including being A1 Fire Rated, offering a glass lid option, featuring Rockwool insulation, and having a lower U-Value. Additionally, the glass in the RSL is rated for CWCT Impact Resistance to Class 2.

Can the RSL be supplied with self-cleaning glass?

At the moment, we do not offer self-cleaning glass for the RSL.

Can I install a ladder on your smoke vent models?

We do not recommend installing permanent ladders on our RSL-R, RLB-R, or other smoke vent models, as they may impact the aerodynamic and free areas, potentially affecting performance.

For all information regarding this product please download its datasheet.
