FAQs

What does Agrément Certified mean?

Agrément certification is a mark of quality and performance, indicating that the product has been assessed by independent experts and meets stringent building standards.

Can ThermaQuilt be used on its own for insulation?

ThermaQuilt provides excellent thermal resistance, especially through radiant heat reflection, and acts as a vapor control layer. Depending on climate and building regulations, it may need to be used in conjunction with other insulation materials for complete thermal requirements.

How do I tape the overlaps?

Use a high-quality, manufacturer-approved foil tape. Ensure the tape adheres firmly to clean, dry surfaces on both the foil and the underlying material to create an airtight and watertight seal.

What is the purpose of the vapor control layer?

The integrated vapor control layer prevents moisture vapor from passing through the insulation and condensing within the building fabric, which helps prevent dampness, mold, and structural damage.

How many layers does ThermaQuilt have?

ThermaQuilt features 9 distinct layers, each contributing to its overall thermal performance and reflective capabilities.

Does the reflective surface need to face a specific direction?

To maximize its reflective properties, the foil surface should typically face the air gap on the warm side of the insulation. Consult the manufacturer's detailed installation guide for specific recommendations based on application.

Troubleshooting

Reduced thermal performance

Check for any breaches in the sealed overlaps or punctures in the foil layers. Ensure required air gaps are maintained.

Condensation issues

Verify that ThermaQuilt is installed as a continuous vapor control layer and that all seams are properly taped. Ensure adequate ventilation in the building structure as per building regulations.

Difficulty cutting the material

Use a sharp utility knife or heavy-duty scissors. Ensure the blade is sharp for clean cuts.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent thermal performance due to radiant heat reflection.
  • Combines insulation and vapor control in one product, saving time and material.
  • Agrément Certified for assured quality and compliance.
  • Flexible and easy to cut and install in various building elements.
  • Reduces thermal bridging effectively when installed correctly.

Cons

  • Requires careful installation to maximize its reflective properties.
  • May not be suitable as a standalone insulation in very cold climates without additional conventional insulation.
  • Can be punctured or damaged if not handled with care during installation.
  • The reflective surface can be sensitive to dust over time, potentially reducing effectiveness if not sealed properly.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Ensure the surface is clean, dry, and free from sharp projections.
  2. Unroll ThermaQuilt and install it according to the manufacturer's guidelines, paying close attention to maintaining specified air gaps.
  3. Overlap seams by at least 50mm and seal them thoroughly with approved foil tape to create a continuous barrier and ensure optimal performance.
  4. Cut the material using sharp scissors or a utility knife.

Compatibility:

ThermaQuilt is designed for use in floors, walls (timber frame, masonry), and roofs (pitched and flat).

Care:

Keep the material protected from damage during storage and installation. Once installed and sealed, it requires no ongoing maintenance. Avoid puncturing or compromising the sealed layers.
