Installation Guide

The procedure used to install soffit
over enclosed eaves is almost
identical to that used for open eaves.
A J-Channel or F-Channel can be
used to receive soffit panels.
(Fig. 1 & 2)
Determine the preferred method of
installing soffit at the fascia board.
NOTE: If the existing soffit is rotted
or damaged, remove it completely
before installing vinyl soffit, then
use the instructions for open eaves.
