Hunton Intello Plus is a vapor barrier that replaces vapor barriers, and provides maximum protection for all types of insulation in ceilings, walls, joists and floors.

Why choose Hunton Intello Plus?

• Hunton Intello Plus provides maximum protection for all types of insulation
• The vapor retarder is particularly advantageous when using cellulose or wood fiber insulation
• It provides optimal protection against unwanted moisture and mould
• Intello Plus has an extremely high efficiency and variable diffusion resistance in all climates, and has a span from the lowest value to the highest value by more than 100 times:
  Sd value: 0.25 m up to > 25 m
  g value: 1.25 MNs/g up to > 125 MNs/g
• The steam brake provides high protection against condensation in both winter and summer climates
• Hunton Intello Plus is incredibly durable, thanks to a woven mesh that withstands tough treatment and provides good grip.

Areas of use

Hunton Intello Plus is used as a vapor barrier and replaces vapor barriers (plastic foil) in all types of insulation and diffusion-open joists, roof and wall constructions.

The vapor barrier also ensures that moisture can dry up inside the room, and will thus contribute to faster drying of unwanted excess moisture. Intello Plus is especially suitable for use in seasonal and holiday homes that are unheated for long periods.

Generally

Hunton Intello Plus should be laid with the foiled side (the side with the logo) against the warm side of the structure. The steam brake can be mounted in either direction, either horizontally or vertically, against the underlying structure (joists, beams and the like) and must be stretched before it is attached.

In the case of blown-in insulation, it is an advantage if you mount the vapor barrier horizontally (across joists and beams, etc.) and tape wraps to get the best seal. Center distance must not exceed 1000 mm.

After assembly, and to be able to bear the weight of the insulation (ceiling, joists and the like), cross battens must be mounted. The battens should be mounted with a maximum distance of 500 mm. Overlapping or wrapping tape must also be secured with clamp battens to prevent the fabric from being stretched by the weight of the insulation.

The air tightness in edges and transitions is at its best when the steam brake is laid without folds. Ensure good ventilation when laying to prevent unwanted moisture building up in the wall. Feel free to use a dehumidifier.

To prevent condensation and unwanted moisture in the insulation, Hunton Intello Plus must be installed as soon as the insulation of the structure is complete. This applies especially during winter.
