Type-R can be installed in a variety of ways:
- Tack to window frame if built-in
- Built-in as work progresses using special ties (see
fig. 2)
- TYPE-R can be installed
after the reveal has been
constructed by fixing to the inner leaf using holes provided.
Vertical Jointing
If required, sections of (Therma-Close) TYPE-R can
be jointed to minimise waste. All joints must be tightly butted - 45º downwards
towards the outer leaf. This will stop potential water penetration.
Corner Jointing
When jointing horizontal to vertical, trim both PCV flanges and allow the vertical
to extend below the horizontal - this stops water ingress (see fig. 1).
(Therma-Close) TYPE-R is supplied in 2.5m
lengths and can be supplied to suit any cavity width. (Therma-Close) TYPE-R is
available for Robust and Check Reveals
