The 190mm EcoTherm Eco-Versal PIR delivers a comprehensive 5-in-1 solution with a rigid polyisocyanurate (PIR) core that contains no fibre, combined with aluminium foil composite facing on both surfaces.

This 190mm PIR Insulation Board works equally well for new builds and thermal upgrades to existing structures, offering an economical approach to lowering CO2 footprints and meeting Building Regulations/Standards requirements. The universal design of the 190mm Ecotherm suits insulation projects across pitched roofs, floors, walls, dormer cheeks, and ceilings.

Applications

The 190mm ecotherm eco versal suits both new construction and thermal enhancement of existing building components. Typical applications include:

1. Floors
2. Pitched roofs
3. Cold flat roofs
4. Timber frame walls
5. Solid walls
6. Dormer cheeks
7. Ceilings
8. Room-in-the-roof applications

For floors | Moisture tolerance guidelines for Eco-Versal are as follows:

- The 190mm ecotherm floor insulation must be positioned above the Damp Proof Membrane (DPM) and kept away from ground moisture contact.

- Where a concrete slab is used or present, apply a protective membrane of minimum 500 gauge thickness over Eco-Versal before screed installation.

- This 190mm Ecotherm PIR insulation works with most Underfloor Heating Systems (UFH). A minimum 500 gauge polythene sheet must cover the 190mm Insulation Boards before UFH installation. Refer to your UFH system manufacturer's guidance during installation.

For Walls | The guidelines for breathable membrane and vapour control when using 190mm ecotherm Wall insulation are as follows:

- Secure a breathable membrane following the manufacturer's specifications.

- Install a Vapour Control Layer (VCL) behind the plasterboard to reduce condensation risk. This may be unnecessary if using insulated plasterboard.

For Roofs | Guidelines for using breathable membrane, vapour control, vertical battens, and insulation layers with Eco-Versal are as follows:

- Fix a Breathable Membrane per manufacturer guidance. For pitched roofs, lay the membrane over rafters and secure with tile or slate laths.

- Assess the requirement for a Vapour Control Layer (VCL) and/or undertile ventilation using BS 5250:2021 (Code of practice for control of condensation in buildings).

- For all over-rafter applications, secure 190mm ecotherm Roof Insulation using vertical counter battens, which enable traditional slate and tile lath fixing.

- Lay the breathable membrane directly on the 190mm Eco-Versal board before installing counter battens. Alternatively, install counter battens on top of the 190mm PIR Board and drape the breathable membrane over them.

- For applications requiring low U-values, consider installing insulation between rafters combined with Insulated Plasterboard such as Ecotherm Eco-Liner on the rafter underside for improved practicality.
