may be assessed using the following table:
FIXING GUIDE
CATEGORY A – UNEXPOSED AREAS
All inland regions other than certain specified areas.
Mechanically fix two courses of tiles at the eaves, ridge and verges for the full overhang,
whichever is greater. Cut tiles at hips, valleys and abutments to be secured with Kro Clips
or Coverfill. It is recommended that closed soffits be fitted on all verge and eave overhangs.

fix a band of tiles equal to (x) along (y), as calculated above, at each verge (or the full
overhang, whichever is the greater.) Tiles at hips, valleys and abutments to be secured

LUMINO |
L O O K S T H AT L A S T !
The technologically advanced LUMINO finish was developed exclusively for the Monier Group.The coating technique is an acrylic polymer
emulsion film which is applied when the tile is wet, creating an inseparable bond of colour pigments with the concrete tile. It effectively
seals the pores of the tile, preventing efflorescence, locks in the vibrant colour and protects the tile against UV-rays and weathering.
LUMINO CRYSTAL*
A clear acrylic film that enhances the tile colour, especially on a Coverland tile with a Farmhouse finish.

*Following the heavy rainstorms of 1987 and 1990 in the UK, more than one
million roofs were affected. Not a single Dry Ridge System that had been
properly installed was damaged in these storms.
**A well-ventilated roof prevents damp and mould, which rots the timber trusses
and damages the roof. Also, according to the WHO, the prevalence of damp
and mould increases people’s susceptibility to asthma and allergies.
