Aluminium Foil Insulation for Suspended and Concrete Floor Applications - BBA Certificate No. 09/4640
Foil-Tec Single is a multi-layer foil laminate, coated with polyethylene to provide a corrosion resistant insulation system.
Foil-Tec Single is a high-performance material that works by creating a low emissivity air space below the floor, thus reflecting the heat back.
Foil-Tec Single can be applied to enhance ‘U’ values in new build or refurbished building projects to meet and exceed current Building Regulations
Concrete Floor Applications
Foil-Tec Single is rolled out onto concrete floor with shiny side facing upwards - leaving enough edge overlap for 75mm lip to be left behind skirting.
Timber battens/joists (min 50mm x 50mm) are then laid on top of the Foil-Tec Single, spaced at centres to suit the particular flooring.
The decking is then fixed with screws (at 200mm centres) into battens/joists providing 25mm penetration into the 50mm wide battens/joists
Installation in suspended floor applications
Foil-Tec Single is rolled out with the shiny side 
facing upwards, over the joists
Foil-Tec Single is then nailed in place through the Foil-Tec Saddle Clips to maintain required air gap - 4- per m²
The horizontal joints are overlapped by 100mm and are left open to allow any moisture accumulation to dissipate
Foil-Tec Single must be brought up (behind the skirting board) to 75mm
The decking is then fixed with screws (at 200mm centres) 37mm into the joists
Joist End Fitting Recommendations
Make 2 x 75-100mm cuts in Foil-tec - same width as joist. Then make one further cut, same width again, on each side. Fold up flap(A), fold back flaps (B) and pull Foil-tec (C) up to meet wall. Fix to wall and fit skirting board over, concealing Foil-tec.
