  • Ozone depletion potential of zero
  • Independently tested by Warrington Fire
  • LABC Registered Detail
  • Satisfies NHBC Standards
  • Manufactured to BS EN ISO 9001 and BS EN ISO 14001
  • Complies with Building Regulation Approved Documents C, B, L1 & L2
  • Complies with ‘Part L’ accredited construction details
  • Complies with the Scottish Building Standards ‘Technical handbook’
  • Satisfies BRE document ‘Thermal insulation: avoiding risks’
  • Meets all relevant British Standards
  • Rigid profile extruded in grey UPVC
  • Supplied in 2.4 metre lengths
  • 50mm Rockfibre mineral wool (FR) insulation 0.034W/m2K
  • Polyethylene bag encapsulates insulation for moisture protection
  • Can be used in both first and second fix applications
  • Cut the cavity closer into required lengths allowing the jamb section to overlap the sill section and to butt the underside of the lintel
  • Fit the 4 metal fixing flanges 100mm from each end and 100mm from the centre line. Ensure 2 fixing flanges per insulation slab section.
  • In first fix application the cavity barrier should be nailed to the jamb/sill of the door or window frame and the whole assembly built in as work proceeds. Alternatively the barrier can be built in sections using fixing ties as work proceeds.
  • For second fix applications, the cavity barrier is pushed into the open cavity after building work is complete. The compressible nature of the exposed insulation material is used to create a friction fit in the cavity, secure nail fixing is required.
  • Joining ‘off cut’ sections should be minimised for the FR range.
  • Establish the cavity width and select the correct cavity barrier width, or the next size up to ensure the cavity can be closed
  • In jamb and sill applications, first estimate the total length of cavity barrier required, then order the correct number of individual 2.4 metre lengths so limiting joint pieces
  • Fixing ties are available for secure fixing if required (particular attention around door openings). Allow for ties fitted at 450mm centres
  • Supplied with 4 metal fixing flanges that must be slotted into place.
  • BRE Document ‘Thermal insulation: avoiding risks’ and Robust Details stipulate: “When a window or door frame is set back behind the inner face of a dense outer masonry leaf, it should overlap an insulated closer by a minimum of 30mm for BRE exposure zones Sheltered to Severe; but fully rebated check reveals for zones Very Severe’’.
  • With reference to insulation, the products in this range do not use, contain or produce Urea Formaldehyde, CFC’s or indeed any of the so called soft CFC’s, ie. HCFC’s & HFA’s. They conform to the Montreal Protocol and have an ozone depletion
