This is particularly relevant for contractors in Scotland, the North of England and ultra-windy parts of the UK.<\/p>\n<p>The test, carried out when the revised standard came into force a few years ago in the face of increasingly extreme weather incidents, concluded that <a href=\"https:\/\/www.insulation-actis.com\/hybrid-system\/boostr-hybrid-roof.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Actis Boost \u2018R Hybrid Roof<\/a> and Boost R Hybrid are suitable for use across all five regions, or zones, of the UK identified under the new system, from the most northerly islands of Scotland to the most southerly point of England.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-146787 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/WIND-MAP-zones-colour-549x1024.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"549\" height=\"1024\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/WIND-MAP-zones-colour-549x1024.png 549w, https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/WIND-MAP-zones-colour-161x300.png 161w, https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/WIND-MAP-zones-colour-768x1434.png 768w, https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/WIND-MAP-zones-colour-823x1536.png 823w, https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/WIND-MAP-zones-colour-225x420.png 225w, https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/WIND-MAP-zones-colour-696x1299.png 696w, https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/WIND-MAP-zones-colour-610x1139.png 610w, https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/WIND-MAP-zones-colour.png 924w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 549px) 100vw, 549px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s worth noting that not all underlays can cope with the windier conditions of Scotland or the far North of England, with some only suitable for use in zones one to three.<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/energy-news\/get-ready-for-winter-with-actis-insulation-vapour-control-and-breather-membrane-products\/144973\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Using Boost R Hybrid Roof<\/a> means builders can minimise the \u2018ballooning effect&#8217; which sees the underlay force tiles and slates off the roof in high winds.
