Installation of PAROC Hvac Section GreyCoat T and PAROC Hvac Bend GreyCoat T

PAROC Hvac Section GreyCoat T and PAROC Hvac Bend GreyCoat T is non-combustible stone wool pipe insulation for thermal and condensation insulation of pipework in buildings. It has a reinforced grey aluminium foil facing and tape in the longitudinal seam which prevents condensation and gives a quick installation.

General instructions

During the installation, both the object to be insulated and the insulation material should be at a minimum temperature of +10 Celsius.
Allow the temperature of the insulating material to adjust to the ambient installation temperature.
Always store the GreyCoat tape at room temperature.
Check that the surfaces to be joined with tape are clean and dry.
Ensure that pipe section seams are tight but without extra tension. The same applies at supports and other projecting parts.

Follow these instructions to insulate straight pipes:

Apply the section

	Clean the surface carefully.
	Remove the release paper and put pressure on the tape with a spatula.

Securing the section

In order to secure the installation, additional fasteners are required.

Option 1 - Galvanized wire

	Put galvanized wire around the section.
	Lock the wire. Three wires per section are needed.

Option 2 - Galvanized wire, spiral winding

Installation PAROC Hvac Section GreyCoat

Spiral winding of the galvanized wire. Lock the wire one time per section.

Option 3 – Bands

	There are different plastic or metallic bands available that can be used.
	Three bands per section are recommended. Do not apply the bands with too much force, since the facing might break.

Option 4 - Tapelock

	Put the tape around the section.
	Use the “tapelock” method where the tape is fastened glue against glue.
	Fold the tape so that the glue side is attached to the facing.

Taping all joints

	For cold installations where the facing is used as a vapour barrier,
	you need to tape all circumferential joints with Paroc GreyCoat tape.
	Use the “tapelock” method where the tape is fastened glue against glue.
	Fold the tape so that the glue side is attached to the facing.
	Tape all longitudinal joints with PAROC GreyCoat Tape
