Safety recommendations
Only use safe equipment, wear safety gloves, goggles,
shoes and a dust mask.
Important recommendations
A.
Use appropriate concrete/masonry screws or anchors
to fix the U-profiles in a stone floor and screws for a
timber floor.
B.
Watch carefully not to damage pipes, which run through
the floor, when fixing the metal U-profiles.
C.
As an insulation specialist, we advise you to carefully
follow the instructions mentioned below during the
installation of PROMAFOUR
®
-STUDS and L-profiles.
Tip
− Standard U-profiles are available at your local building
materials store.
− You can use the same standard U-profiles as those,
which are used to build a drywall.
− PROMAFOUR
®
-STUDS can also be used to enlarge the
inner peripheral frame, which has to be completely inte-
grated into the encasement.
