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).
