Installation steps

1. Install the membrane
Roll out the membrane and use galvanised staples that are at least 10 mm (3/8") wide by 8 mm (5/16") long to fasten the membrane in the overlap area at intervals of 10-15 cm (4"-6") in a manner that protects against moisture entry. Install the membrane leaving an additional 4 cm (1 5/8") overlap at adjacent building components so that a windtight bond can be applied here subsequently.

2. Apply double-sided adhesive tape
Clean the subsurface (dry and free of dust, silicone and grease), stick DUPLEX double-sided adhesive tape to the lower third of the subsequent overlap in a manner that protects against moisture. Rub tape firmly into place using the pro clima PRESSFIX. Ensure that there is sufficient resistance pressure.

3. Overlap the membranes
Overlap the membranes by approx. 10 cm (4") so that they are watertight. The printed markings are an aid to orientation.

4. Taping over the overlaps
Gradually remove the release film from DUPLEX and stick the overlapping membrane, ensuring that there are no folds or tension. Rub tape firmly into place using the pro clima PRESSFIX. Ensure that there is sufficient resistance pressure.

5a. Alternatively: Taping over the overlaps with TESCON INVIS
Tape TESCON INVIS system adhesive tape centrally to the overlap and stick it down bit by bit so that it is load and wrinkle free.

6a. Sticking to rough or mineral surfaces (e.g. floorboard)
Clean the surface. Apply a bead of ORCON F system adhesive – at least 5 mm (3/16") thick (more in the case of very rough surfaces).

Lay the membrane with an expansion joint and not pressing the tape down completely to allow for movement of the parts.

Stick line of adhesive to the subsurface, remove release film and stick the membrane in place, leaving slack to allow for expansion.

8a. Sticking to windows
Install membranes continuously over window openings and attach them all around the window using a stapler.
Then cut open the opening using a utility knife.

8b. Sticking to windows
In the case of recessed windows, cut into the membrane as shown in the sketch and guide into the reveal as far as the window frame.

9. Sticking to windows
Stick the membrane to the window frame so that it is windtight using TESCON PROFECT. Thanks to the split release paper it is possible to stick the tape first to the membrane and then, subsequently, to the window. Alternatively use TESCON VANA or TESCON INVIS.

10. Sticking to cables and pipes
Place KAFLEX or ROFLEX sealing grommets over the cable or pipe and stick to the membrane. In the case of large gap widths, stick over the blue cable grommet using TESCON INVIS. Tape the pipe grommets to the membrane with TESCON INVIS.

11. Seal angular penetrations
Slide the TESCON PROFECT pre-folded corner sealing tape into the corner on the release film and stick the first independent adhesive strip. Then remove the remaining release strips and stick the second side. Alternatively, this transition can be sealed using the black TESCON INVIS adhesive tape.
