3.5.1
Unpacking the Module
The module will be delivered in a carton box (Fig. 4). The long sides of the modules are held by a
carton block with slots. The upper block has to be removed first. Afterwards the modules can be taken
out. The
0.8m module can be handled by 1 person, 1.6m, 2.3m and 3.1m modules
need to be handled
by 2 persons. Do not scratch the remaining modules with the one you are removing (the edges are
sharp)

Site Preparation
The roof substrate must be even, clean, dry and free of contaminations. In case of excessive soiling,
the roof has to be cleaned according to the roof manufacturer’s instructions. If a roof is damaged it has
to be replaced before installation of the modules.
To clean a TPO, EPDM or metal roof use IPA (2-propanol isopropyl alcohol) and lint free wipes. The
cleaning should not be more than 30 minutes prior to bonding of PVA 600BT adhesive backed part.
The roof substrate has to be completely dry. If necessary, the drying time can be accelerated with a
hot air dryer.
To clean a modified bitumen roof use a soft broom or leaf blower to remove any loose aggregate. Be
careful and do not remove aggregate still bound to the surface. Do not clean the substrate with
solvents. The modified bitumen has to be coated with a roof coating recommended by membrane
supplier and ADCO/Kömmerling.
Before application of Flisom eFlex modules check, if a primer is required by the roof substrate
manufacturer. Check also that the roughness of the roof substrate is never greater than the thickness
of the adhesive layer. Gluing modules on overlapping membranes should be avoided.
