PRODUCT
DESCRIPTION:
Ultra CONRETE BARRIER FOIL™ (CBF) is a layer of pure
aluminum Foil sealed on both sides by industrial-strength
polyethylene bubbles. This patented design protects the aluminum
from lime in curing concrete, which deteriorates foil on-contact.
Installing
Ultra CBF results in noticeably warmer floors, faster slab
response times and reduced BTU consumption of radiant heating
systems. Sealing seams with TVM White Poly Tape forms a continuous
insulator and vapor barrier.
INSTALLATION
METHOD:
1) Unroll CONCRETE BARRIER FOIL™
2) Butt the seams.
3) Seal the seams with TVM White Poly Tape (3” wide).
Install
Radiant Heating System as specified by the manufacturers.
BUILDERS NOTE: Adding 1” of sand
over the ULTRA CONCRETE BARRIER FOIL™ will facilitate
water drainage,
shortening actual curing time.
