Airtec is a multi-layer air
bubble film insulation with aluminium bonded
to either one face (Airtec-Single) or both faces (Airtec-Double).
The aluminium is coated with polythene to give durability and corrosion
resistance
therefore creating a fully waterproof insulation system. Airtec is
a high performance insulation material which acts by trapping
air within its
structure creating low emissivity air spaces which enhance its
total thermal capabilities.
Airtec can be used to enhance ‘U’ values
in traditional cavity wall
construction to meet and exceed current Building Regulations.
Airtec can be used in one of two ways:
Airtec-Single is to be used in conjunction with
thermal blocks.
Airtec-Single is rolled to 25mm
x 38mm vertical counter battens, thus creating the required air
gap.
Once Airtec-Single is in place and joints sealed using Airtec
YBS 75mm tape, then plasterboard (internal finish) is applied
directly onto the Airtec and
fixed directly through to the battens.
Airtec-Double is to be used in conjunction with
medium dense blocks.
Airtec-Double is fixed to the
blockwork-mounted horizontal counter battens thus creating the
required air gap.
Once Airtec-Double is in place
and joints sealed with Airtec YBS 75mm
tape, then the vertical counter battens are fixed at the
required centres, ready for direct application of the plasterboard
(internal surface). |
