ACOUSTALAY® 1500 should be used as an insulating/spot leveling layer between the floor to be laid and the subfloor. Suitable for use with underfloor heating. Always read and follow the guidelines supplied with the underfloor heating system and/or floor to be fitted.
- Ensure the floor is clean and flat*. Unroll at 90º to the direction of the floor, covering the area to be laid. To assist laying, apply double-sided tape to the perimeter of the sub-floor.
- If laid on a concrete sub-floor so the ACOUSTALAY® is to be used as a vapor barrier, then the first row should be laid with a minimum of 20mm up the walls.
- Butt the next row edge tightly to the first, ensuring that they do not overlap. Carefully tape the joints using waterproof tape. All rows, including the last, should also be laid with a minimum of 20mm up the wall. This will be concealed behind the new or refitted skirting, scotia/trim once the floor is laid.
- Lay the flooring on top of the ACOUSTALAY®, referring to the manufacturer’s instructions.
CAUTION: ACOUSTALAY® is combustible and should not be exposed to flame or
other sources of ignition.
A flat sub-floor means deviations of less than 2mm over 2.5m.
