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). |
