Application

The product can be used for all pitched roof constructions (tiled and slated), whether the insulation is at ceiling joist level or at rafter level.


Description

Protect Wunderlay is a heavy-duty type HR roofing underlay, designed for all cold and warm pitched roofs in conjunction with the provision of ventilation at eaves and ridge. The product can be used with a well-sealed ceiling and a separate air and vapour control layer on the warm side of the insulation or where the ceiling is not well-sealed as in a re-roofing application.


Features and benefits:

  • Completely water and airtight.
  • UV and heat resistant.
  • Good nail tear and tensile strength for its weight.
  • Does not generate nuisance noise under wind loading.
  • CE marked and BM TRADA certified.
  • Absorbent under surface prevents condensate drip off.
  • Embossed dark grey upper surface reduces glare and takes a chalk line marking.
  • Easy to cut and handle.
  • Achieves Zones 1-4 at 345 mm batten gauge (1367Pa), when tested to Annex A of BS 5534, ensuring wide coverage across the UK and throughout Ireland
  • Achieves Zones 1-5 at 310 mm batten gauge (2145 Pa).
  • Developed to overcome the disadvantages of traditional Type 1F and 5U felts and second generation plastic sheet materials.
  • Provides a secondary line of defence against wind-driven rain and snow and resistance to wind uplift.
