FIXING PROCEDURE
GLIDEVALE PROTECT TF200 OR SIMILAR REFLECTIVE BREATHER MEMBRANE IS FITTED TO ALL
WALLS AND RUBEROID - PRO BREATHER MEMBRANE TO ROOFS ON COMPLETION OF THE
FRAME ERECTION. IT SHOULD BE FITTED STRICTLY IN ACCORDANCE WITH MANUFACTURER'S
INSTRUCTIONS. BELOW IS A BRIEF INSTALLATION GUIDE.
THE REFLECTIVE MEMBRANE SHOULD BE FITTED WITH THE SILVER SIDE FACING OUT AND IN
SUCH A WAY AS TO SHED WATER AWAY FROM THE SHEATHING AND BELOW THE LOWEST
TIMBER. UPPER LAYERS SHOULD BE LAPPED HORIZONTALLY OVER LOWER LAYERS BY AT
LEAST 100mm AND STAGGERED. THE SHEETS SHOULD BE LAPPED AT LEAST 150mm
VERTICALLY. NAILS SHOULD BE GALVANISED, SHERADIZES OR AUSTENITIC STAINLESS STEEL,
PHOSPHOR BRONZE OR SILICON BRONZE AND STAPLES SHOULD BE OF AUSTENITIC
STAINLESS STEEL. TO PREVENT DAMAGE BY WIND, FIXINGS SHOULD BE AT REGULAR
INTERVALS OF NO MORE THAN 500mm c/c. IT IS ESSENTIAL THAT THE LOWEST TIMBERS IN THE
WALL ARE PROTECTED BY THE BREATHABLE MEMBRANE.
IF GAPS ARE EVIDENT IN ROOF PANELS THESE SHOULD BE FILLED WITH INTUMESCENT FOAM
PROVIDED.
