Certificate type
Robust windtight and vapour permeable (diffusion open) underlay for sealing of exterior roofs and walls or suspended floors
Application
Solitex Plus is an external fully windtight breathable membrane for use as a roofing underlay on pitched roofs (over 15° of pitch) and as a breather membrane on the outside of timber frame walls. The membrane can also be used to windproof the underside of an insulated suspended timber floor.
Suitable for:
- Pitched roofs.
- Protecting sarking boards.
- Warm, cold or hybrid roofs.
- As a wall lining breathable membrane.
- Suspended timber floors.
- Use in conjunction with all insulation types.
- The outside of Blown-in insulation.
Description
Pro Clima Solitex Plus: Reinforced sarking and roof lining membrane.
Pro Clima Solitex Plus Connect: Reinforced sarking and roof lining membrane with self-adhesive sections.
Features and benefits:
- BBA (07/4432) and NSAI (02/0138) certified.
- Type LR Underlay to BS 5250.
- Complies fully with BS 5534:2014 for UK Wind Zones 1–5.
- Monolithic windtight breathable membrane.
- High UV stability up to three months exposure.
- Extremely high nail tear resistance due to its reinforcement and also ideal for using in conjunction with blown-in insulation.
- High degree of protection for building structures during the construction phase, suitable as a temporary covering.
- Quick and reliable adhesion as a result of integrated connect self-adhesive sections along the length of the membrane (Pro Clima Solitex Plus Connect only)
- Extreme water-tightness (>2500 mm W1) making it suitable for all UK and Irish exposure zones.
- Water tightness is unaffected by wood preservatives, resins and oils in the timber. No water seepage or leaching.
- Windtight: prevents the insulation below from wind-washing/thermal bypass.
