How our soffit works
The soffit system is hung from or bolted to the underside steels of the balcony to create a floating imperforate surface. The soffit boards will be mounted to aluminium support bearers which can fixed to balcony steels, at a slight drainage angle if required, using joist support brackets. With interlocking boards, water will be trapped and directed to a drainage channel to be piped from the building.
Innovate snap fit edging can be used to finish the soffit edges, closing gaps to insects and will act to support any ripped cladding boards.
Why is it important?
Soffits both conceal structural components to give an unrivalled clean aesthetic to a building exterior, and can be used as a drainage layer to collect and direct water in compliance with BS 8579, ensuring water does not fall to the balconies below.
