"Nanoizol B", the instructions for use of which should be studied by you after purchasing the product, is a modern vapor barrier material consisting of a two-layer polypropylene film. It is able to retain condensate on the surface and promote its evaporation. This material is intended to protect the insulation and roofing, as well as other building structures from the effects of water vapor, which can penetrate from the inside.
Area of use
“Nanoisol B”, the instructions for use of which will help you eliminate errors, are placed under thermal insulation so that steam and condensate cannot leak out. The insulation is thus protected against moisture. This is especially true in winter, when the temperature difference outside and inside the building can form condensate. You can use this material to isolate floors between floors, as well as load-bearing walls. The polymer film will exclude the possibility of particles of insulation materials entering the room.
Instruction for use
"Nanoizol B", the instructions for use of which will help you during the work, is used in insulated pitched roofs of attics with any type of roofing. It is necessary to cover this vapor barrier on a supporting frame or on a rough skin for thermal insulation. If you want to use "Nanoizol B" to insulate the walls of low-rise buildings, then this material can be used for internal and external implementation of work. The material must be installed on the frame from the inside of the insulation layer.
If we are talking about interfloor ceilings, then installation is carried out on floor slabs or subfloors. In the first case, it is necessary to cover the vapor barrier between the logs, which are represented by floor beams . The vapor barrier must be on top and bottom of the insulation layer, so it will protect the material from both sides.
The use of vapor barrier "Nanoizol V" in conjunction with laminated parquet floors
Sometimes "Nanoizol B", the instructions for use of which are described in the article, are used in the arrangement of laminated or parquet floors. In this case, the two-layer polymer film should be laid directly on the cement screed, while the topcoat is laid on top.
Recommendations for the installation of insulation "Nanoizol V"
If you decide to use the material described above as a vapor barrier together with insulation in the area of the roof or load-bearing walls, then the material must be placed on the inside of the insulation, while it should fit snugly on the smooth side. The layer is fastened to the crate or rough sheath using a construction stapler. Among other things, for fixing the film, you can use galvanized nails, which are driven into the frame.
Vapor barrier "Nanoizol B", the instructions for use which will help you in your work, should be laid horizontally with the formation of an overlap, the width of which can be a limit of 10 to 15 cm. Laying on a wall or pitched roof is from bottom to top. In order to protect the insulation film from damage, experts advise the use of subroofing seals.
Features of the use of vapor barrier "Nanoizol D"
This material is a polypropylene fabric, which is coated on one side with a polymer film. With it, you can protect non-insulated pitched roofs. If we are talking about an insulated flat roof, then Nanoizol D, one side of which is covered with a laminated polypropylene film, will act as a vapor barrier. If you are engaged in arranging the screed in the basement, then this material can perform the functions of waterproofing.
“Nanoizol D” copes well with its tasks when installing the floor, which will be operated in a room with high humidity, this includes the base. "Nanoizol D", the instructions for use of which will help you avoid mistakes, when arranging pitched roofs, it is placed on top of the crate or flooring, and then fixed with a construction stapler. An alternative fixation is laying the panel on the flooring or crate, where the material should be turned with the smooth side up. It is necessary to start work from the lower edge of the roof, and to ensure more reliable waterproofing, the panels should be fixed to each other with a connecting tape.
Cement screed on insulated floors is poured over the material, as well as the insulation layer. At the edges of the vapor barrier, it is necessary to raise approximately 15 cm to the adjacent walls.
Tips for the use of "Nanoizol FS"
You can also find Nanoizol FS on sale, instructions for using this material will be presented below. This vapor barrier is designed to protect roofing and wall structures, as well as ceilings.
Nanoizol FS is a vapor-tight three-layer membrane that differs from Nanoizol B by the presence of an additional layer of treated lavsan. It has a mirror effect and is necessary to reflect infrared radiation. Thus, the manufacturer has achieved additional heat savings. The vapor barrier is installed on the inside of the roof or wall on the elements of the supporting frame, whether it be rafters, beams or racks.
It is possible to mount under rough sheathing using the staples of a construction stapler or galvanized nails for fixing. If you have to work with a block or brick wall, on which you need to install a vapor barrier, then you can use a connecting tape of the same manufacturer for fastening.
Conclusion
Now you know what “Nanoisol B” is. Instructions for use, which side to install this material - everything was mentioned above. Now you just have to decide what kind of vapor barrier to purchase for any kind of work.
