Product Information

Foil-Tec is an inexpensive Eco friendly Foil multi-layer foil laminate Insulation

BBA Certified Foil-Tec Single and Foil-Tec Double are reinforced, multi-layer coated foil laminate products designed specifically designed for under floor insulation.

Foil-Tec Single - with highly reflective aluminium foil one side

Foil-Tec Double - with highly reflective aluminium foil on both sides

The aluminium is coated with nitro-cellulose to provide a corrosion resistant insulation system, which is less than one millimetre in thickness.

Foil-Tec Single and Foil-Tec Double are high performance thermo reflective foil insulation materials that acts as an heat reflecting membrane creating a low emissivity air space below the floor, thus reflecting the heat back.

Foil-Tec products can be applied to enhance ‘U’ values in new build or refurbished building projects to meet and exceed current Building Regulations.

Unlike some other over engineered single foil laminate heat reflecting membranes ...
Foil-Tec represents excellent value.

Foil-Tec Single - Suspended Floor Applications

Foil-Tec Single is a multi-layer foil laminate, coated with nitro-cellulose to provide a corrosion resistant insulation system.

It is a high-performance material which acts 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.

Suspended floor fitting recommendations

Foil-Tec Single is rolled out with the shiny side facing upwards, over the joists
Foil-Tec Single is then nailed in place to the joists through the Foil-Tec
Saddle Clips are used 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.

Concrete floor fitting recommendations

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

Heat loss calculations

The heat loss in a floor is greater at the exposed perimeter edge of the floor. To calculate the U-Value, the exposed perimeter edge to area ratio needs to be worked out e.g. - a 100m2 area, semi-detached house with 3 external walls of 10m each has a perimeter edge to area
ratio of 0.3 (i.e. 30m -: 100m2=0.3)

Overall thermal transmittance (U-value) of suspended floors should be calculated using BS EN ISO 13370.

In many cases Foiltec Double used in suspended timber floors will meet Building Regulations requirements with no additional measures.

Foil-Tec Double - Suspended Floor Applications

Foil-Tec Double is a multi-layer foil laminate, coated with nitrocellulose to provide a corrosion
resistant insulation system.
It is a high-performance material which acts creating a low emissivity air space below the floor, thus reflecting the heat back.
Foil-Tec Double can be applied to enhance ‘U’ values in new build or refurbished building projects to meet and exceed current Building Regulations.

Suspended floor fitting recommendations

Foil-Tec Double is rolled out over the joists
Foil-Tec Double 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 Double 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.
Now 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.

Foil-Tec as a Timberframe Wall Insulating and Vapour Control Layer ...

Foil-Tec is a highly reflective and robust vapour control layer, which YBS Insulation has developed to increase the thermal performance of both walls and roofs.

It provides additional strength and thermal performance over conventional vapour control layer material giving the added benefit of a service cavity.
Has a high Vapour resistance.
Helps to reduce condensation risk in accordance with BS 5250: 2002.
Reduces air leakage when used in conjunction with ThermaWrap Foil Tape as required by Building Regulations.
The low emissivity reflective properties of Foil-Tec increases the thermal performance of the structure in which it is installed.
Comes with a corrosion and damage resistant surface.
Has excellent nail tear resistance.
Is a tough and durable material with a high burst strength.
Is easy to cut, lightweight and easy to handle with no protective clothing.
Unlike similar over-engineered products available on the market, Foil-Tec is a cheap, good value, eco friendly foil insulation product.

Condensation Risk

Further to calculating the thermal insulation requirements through a cavity wall, a check should be made for predicting the risk of condensation within the structure.

This should be carried out using the method described in BS5250: 2002.
