NEW CONSTRUCTION:
- Invert RETROClip™ to form L shape, take care to ensure the bracket is at the right height.
- RETROClip™ brackets should be fixed to the floor joists so that they are on either side of the sheet, 400mm in from each end.
- New buildings are typically placed at 400mm or 450mm centres.
- When correctly cut to size RETROTHERM™ will sufficiently compress into the space between the floor joists at these centres. When the brackets are in place simply drop in the RETROTHERM™ sheet.
- Once the RETROTHERM™ sheet is in place fix the flooring to the joists in accordance to the manufacturers recommendations.
- RETROTHERM™ can be installed post construction in the same manner as the bracket or adhesive method in retrofitting.
