G Flex uncoupling membrane 150sf

ILU5100   G-Flex 14 Roll 3’ 3’’ x 45’ 9’’ = 150 ft² (1 m x 14 m = 14 m²) 

The uncoupling membrane G-Flex is very useful for dealing with seepage and damp with negative pressure on the inside face of walls and floors in contact with the ground

The effect of moisture penetrating the wall from the outside is double: outside the appearance of salts on the wall and inside the detachment of plaint and plaster. Other and the less visible effect is the loss of constructive and insulating properties of the walls, the danger of molds growth on the wall, and the unpleasant smell of a damp basement.

The free-space of the underside of the matting G-Flex and the floor or the wall provides a route for excess of moisture and vapor from the building and dissipate into the air while insulating the interior from water coming from the surrounding ground. This is a fast and effective way that moisture remains “on the other side of the wall”.

If the event of excessive moisture and if there are free water, apart from insulating with the membrane, suitable elements must be incorporated for its drainage and elimination: channeling water to be discharged into a drain, a lifting pump if necessary, etc.
