ENVIROLAY INSTALLATION PROCEDURE
Please note that only Envirolay (ENVIROLAY) is
approved for full use with the Envirotile Roof
System in conformity to Fire Standard BS:476-3.
If another universal type of underlay is used for
Envirotile installation on a cold roof type it will
contravene Deeplas’s guarantee and roof performance
and all warranties will be considered null and void.
Warm roof types are exempt and can, subject to
design, use other types of underlay provided that
the warm roof system is fully approved for full use
in conformity with the latest revised and updated
building regulations for 2020 onwards.
Starting at the right hand gable end roll out and fix
to the centre of rafters a single course of Envirolay
(ENVIROLAY) to the full roof width to be battened;
fixing and securing the roof underlay at rafter
centres with clout nails as you go along. A 15mm
sag/drop is required between rafters to allow for
interstitial condensation to run down the roof
below fixed battens. Overlap the eaves/felt support
trays by a minimum distance of 100mm for the
first course of underlay (illustrated).
Cut the underlay straight at gable ends with a
sharp knife or robust pair of scissors in line with
the gable end edge.
Always overlap each Envirolay course by a
recommended minimum distance of 150mm.
Use Duo Plus tape (ENVTAPE) to seal the overlap
layers to provide added protection against high
wind uplift loads during full exposure.
