Description

The material is yellow and semi-translucent, with a printed grid that facilitates easy alignment with timber studs or joists. Integrated tapes are situated on the membrane's outer edges, following a dotted overlap line, on alternating sides on the upper and lower surface. This allows a jointed and sealed overlap by applying two layers of adhesive to each other. As a result, a more effective seal than a traditional overlap tape is provided, even when lacking an underlying substrate.

Questions & Answers

Question:

Can this be retro fitted over PIR board (between joists) that will be on a ground floor timber suspended?

Answer:

Provided it is fitted on the warm side of the insulation (innermost side) - I can see no issue as to why you could not do this.

Question:

Can this product be used under slates?

Answer:

This is a high perfomance vapour barrier designed to be used on the warm side of the roof, you'd be best looking at a breather membrane like the following which is designed to be used as the outermost layer before tiles or slates - https://www.insulationsuperstore.co.uk/product/protect-tf200-thermo-insulating-breather-membrane-15m-x-50m-roll.html
