Air-Seal Products HD01 Heavy Duty Tyre Sealant 20Lt

Product Information

While over-tightening your home is definitely something to be avoided, it’s just not the big problem that people think it might be—especially in older homes, and as long as you hire a trained professional.

Most tyre sealant users in this country will experience below freezing temperatures at least a few times per year. Be sure that your sealant is freeze protected to prevent the possibility of a horrendous vibration caused by a lump of ice in your tyres – not to mention that ‘ice cubes’ don’t seal punctures,” the company further advised. Moisture Management: Pro Clima’s state-of-the-art intelligent membranes are designed to expertly manage moisture, ensuring a consistently healthy building fabric. Spray foam insulationis unlike traditional insulation products in that it isn’t a material that comes in rolls or panels. Instead,spray foam insulationis an industrial foam, that is injected directly into gaps and crevices, to ensure ambient temperatures inside. Spray foam insulationis formulated using a mixture of both chemicals and water, which consequently creates the foam. It’s completely non-toxic, and does not ‘off-gas’ once applied. And ultimately, 91% of home buyers prefer an energy-efficient certified home—that’s an overwhelming majority ( 5).

Get a better-feeling house with an energy-savings guarantee if you qualify Myth 1: Air sealing can make your home too stuffy. Heat Loss: Air leakage can account for up to 50% of heat loss in contemporary homes, leading to inflated energy bills. Yes. Getting your home air sealed is a worthwhile investment—one that pays off in energy efficiency, comfort, and your home’s value. However, houses built in the 20th century or earlier often have so much excess airflow that there’s plenty of opportunity to air seal while still maintaining healthy circulation.

In most New Zealand domestic buildings, the internal plasterboard linings provide this general air barrier. It can also be provided by a rigid underlay – such as plywood or fibre-cement overlaid with a flexible underlay, a proprietary rigid air barrier or a flexible wall underlay meeting the specific requirements for an air barrier given in Table 23 of E2/AS1 – fixed to the outer face of the framing.Natural airflow helps prevent the buildup of mold and mildew throughout your house, and mechanical airflow (like the vent from your furnace) prevents unwanted—and sometimes even dangerous—air from remaining trapped in your house. There is also a risk of this air flow occurring around holes or penetrations through the external envelope, such as windows, doors, pipe penetrations and meter boxes. Hence, an air seal should be fitted between the framed opening and the reveal of the window, door, pipe or meter box. For recessed lighting, the fixtures are capped from above with fire-retardant boxes and sealed around the edges.) Whole-house air sealing: What about other areas? These air seals require no maintenance as long as air flows continuously to the seal. By design, product will not enter the seal or throttle area, which eliminates the need for maintenance. Its material of construction keeps wear and corrosion from occurring. However, system upsets occur, and if product enters, the seal can be easily disassembled, cleaned and reassembled.

With spray foam insulation allowing you to heat your home less, the bills reduce, and the energy efficiency of the property increases.

Energy efficient homes are more desirable to potential buyers and tenants, and can add value to the financial worth of your asset. Without air sealing, warm, humid air can be drawn into your house in summer. In winter, a house without proper air sealing can be freezing on the first floor, and an inferno upstairs. Where an air permeable cladding material is used or where there is a drained and vented cavity, the wall construction must incorporate an air barrier to prevent air flow from the exterior or the cavity into the building.
