Description

Novia VariCheck FR is a Class B-s1,d0 fire rated, variable permeability air and vapour control layer (AVCL) offering a cost-effective fire-safe solution for both standard and high rise constructions. Complies with EN 13501-1 Fire Classification B-s1,d0 and is CE marked to EN 13964. Suitable for use in high rise applications under Fire Safety Approved Document B. The variable sd value (0.4m to 3.2m) means the membrane adapts seasonally, less permeable in colder months and more permeable in warmer months, minimising interstitial condensation without over-restricting vapour movement. Suitable for insulated wall and roof applications, and floor applications where a fire rating is not required. Available on NBS Chorus and NBS Source. Supplied as a 1.5m x 50m roll.

  • Class B-s1,d0 fire rating suitable for high rise applications under Fire Safety Approved Document B
  • Variable sd value (0.4m to 3.2m) adapts seasonally to changes in local humidity levels
  • Less permeable in colder months, more permeable in warmer months
  • Minimises interstitial condensation without over-restricting vapour movement
  • Cost-effective fire rated solution for standard and high rise constructions
  • CE marked to EN 13964

Good to know

  • Class B-s1,d0 fire classification is valid when installed flush against a substrate with fire class A2-s1,d0 or A1, such as 12mm plasterboard, with no cavity between product and substrate
  • Suitable for floor applications only where a fire rating is not required
  • Milky white in colour with 150mm overlap lines
  • All laps and edges must be fully sealed and taped
  • Use Novia 30mm Double Sided Butyl Tape for all overlaps and around framework
  • Use Novia Aluminium Foil Tape or Novia Metallised BOPP Tape over overlaps to ensure a fully airtight seal
  • Any mechanical fixings must penetrate through the butyl tape to seal around punctures
  • Novia AirSeal 310 FR sealant can be used where additional sealing is required, for example at internal corners, floor sections or window reveals
  • For a full Class B installation use in conjunction with Novia FR Breather Membrane or Novia UV Facade FR Breather Membrane for open facade applications
  • Available on NBS Chorus and NBS Source
  • Supplied as a 1.5m x 50m roll (75m²)
