1. When taping a plastic squeegee or blade should be used to apply appropriate pressure to the tape. Surfaces must be dry and free from dust, oil or grime prior to taping
2. Leave at least 50 mm clearance around heat producing flues or light fittings (refer to light fitting manufacturer).

Kingspan AIR-CELL® can be damaged by intense heat and any contact with sparks and flame from blow torches, welders, cutting tools, etc. must be avoided. Remember that safety comes first in any insulation installing project.
