Installation in suspended floor applications

  • Foil-Tec Single is rolled out with the shiny side facing upwards, over the joists
  • Foil-Tec Single is then nailed in place through the Foil-Tec Saddle Clips to maintain required air gap - 4–per m²
  • The horizontal joints are overlapped by 100mm and are left open to allow any moisture accumulation to dissipate
  • Foil-Tec Single must be brought up (behind the skirting board) to 75mm
  • The decking is then fixed with screws (at 200mm centres) 37mm into the joists

Joist End Fitting Recommendations
Make 2 x 75-100mm cuts in Foil-tec - same width as joist. Then make one further cut, same width again, on each side. Fold up flap(A), fold back flaps (B) and pull Foil-tec (C) up to meet wall. Fix to wall and fit skirting board over, concealing Foil-tec.

Installation for concrete floor applications

  • Foil-Tec Single is rolled out onto concrete floor with shiny side facing upwards - leaving enough edge overlap for 75mm lip to be left behind skirting
  • Timber battens/joists (min 50mm x 50mm) are then laid on top of the Foil-Tec Single, spaced at centres to suit the particular flooring.
  • The decking is then fixed with screws (at 200mm centres) into battens/joists providing 25mm penetration into the 50mm wide battens/joists
