The WhiteAnt Co. System - Passive Termite barrier system
Product description
The White Ant Co System is a Stainless Steel/ PVC passive termite barrier system. This
system wa
s covered by “The CSIRO Appraisal 224”. This appraisal has been independently
revaluated by ECOSPAN Pty Ltd, as the CSIRO system was phased out and now replaced by
the “CodeMark “ compliance system. Our company has engaged the services of: CertMark,
14/76 Wises Rd. Buderim QLD 4556. As an auditor for compliance with the BCA under the
“CodeMark System”, this process was completed on 18 January 2010 and final certification
was issued on 15 April 2010 with the certificate number CMA-CM40036.
General:
The Perimeter barriers, construction joints barriers, retaining walls, suspended floor barriers
and slab penetration collars are made from strip either stainless steel or PVC with all joins
adhered with an approved and tested flexible adhesive and used as a physical barrier to
prevent the concealed entry of subterranean termites into the structure. The perimeter barrier
is placed to finish at the face of the external brickwork or to the face of the applied finish
material and sealed to the slab with The White Ant Co. Pty Ltd approved adhesives or
adhesive coatings. The barrier is placed finished not less than 75mm above finished ground
level or not less than 25mm where concrete or similar materials abut the perimeter of the
structure. Where it is not possible to achieve a minimum inspection zone of 25 mm, a
secondary barrier must be installed.
The White Ant Co. System barrier may be cast into a concrete slab prior to pouring. Slab
penetration flanges are bonded to the slab penetration pipe with ADULETH TERMITICIDE
flexible adhesive and held in position on the pipe penetration, if necessary, by means of a PVC
collar. The slab penetration flange are placed at a mid slab depth and below the finished slab
height. The pipe penetration collars may be fitted prior to concrete pour or retrofitted.
