I'm having a discussion with my carpenter about how the overflashing should be positioned. We don't completely agree. Is there anyone here who is a tinsmith who can show pictures of how it should look? Träpanel

The fold on the sheet metal should go up behind the panel.

Are you a sheet metal worker? Do you have a picture? There's a lot of "little lady" from my carpenter, namely. He wants the flashing behind the windproofing. I can't see how that's supposed to work. I just want it in black and white that he's stupid in the head, namely

It seems to have been discussed earlier, check if information is available here for example.
I actually don't understand the drawings.

How do you want to mount the flashing, and how does the carpenter want to mount the flashing?
Maybe we should have started there.

I see many who have installed only under the locks. Is that wrong?

The carpenter says it should be behind the wind barrier. How that's supposed to work, I don't know. It's difficult when you're going to replace windows, I think.

It should be on the battens. I've never encountered it being behind the weather barrier, it just causes unnecessary perforation in the barrier.

Yes, it should be on the batten, under the panel boards. Then you can put it under the wind barrier but that feels like overkill for hardly any benefit.

I wouldn't say it's wrong. For example, if you look at Nordiska Fönster's instructions, it says behind the panel, but it also mentions that it's better if it's installed behind the nailing battens.

When you say "covers," I think of the front of two boards in a facade with vertical paneling, meaning you can see the flashing between the covers. That's wrong. It has to be behind the baseboard and preferably behind the nailing battens too.

Diagram showing the correct installation of boards and flashing on a facade, with labels indicating positions of baseboard, cover board, battens, drip edge, and wind protection.
Mounting behind any wind barrier or equivalent is also wrong. It should be intact and without holes for any flashing.

Yes, "lock" is exactly that. Yes, mounting behind wind paper is just bullshit and a way for him to dismiss and say, you don't understand this, little miss. I'm actually considering reporting to ARN because of his lousy attitude.
