Thermo-loc standard cavity closers Universal closers for eliminating damp and cold bridging around doors, windows and sills 122 CCFORM/75 CC2.4 profile (insulation omitted) CCFIX Use To close the cavity at external doors, window jambs and sills To provide thermal insulation and prevent cold bridging To provide a DPC at external doors, window jambs or sills Features and benefits Provides an effective DPC and thermal barrier between frame, inner and outer wall leaf Exceeds the minimum thermal resistance path of 0.45m 2 K/W stipulated in Robust Details limited thermal bridging and air leakage Rigid profile extrusion allows both first and second fix Components available to make up on-site frame formers Suitable for all frame and sill positions (see fig.1) Integrated & flexible water strip to reduce air leakage Durable and resistant to decay Simple on-site trimming to cope with rogue cavity widths Low ECO Points rating Quality BBA Approved Satisfies NHBC Standards 2006 Manufactured to BS EN ISO 9001:2000 Complies with Building Regulation Approved Documents C (2004 edition), L1 & L2 (2006 editions) Complies with Robust Details limited thermal bridging and air leakage Satisfies BRE document Thermal insulation: avoiding risks Meets all relevant British Standards Conforms to Montreal Protocol Material and colour choice Rigid profile extruded in white UPVC with blue strip Supplied in 2.1, 2.4 and 3 metre lengths Standard cavity options available 50mm - 100mm Expanded Polystyrene insulation 0.038W/mk Wider cavities available to special order Flush jamb Staggered jamb Fig.1 Fully rebated (check reveal) Sill detail Installation advice Can be used in both first and second fix applications Cut the cavity closer into required lengths allowing the jamb section to overlap the sill section and to butt the underside of the lintel In first fix application the cavity closer should be nailed to the jamb/sill of the door or window frame and the whole assembly built in as work proceeds. Alternatively the closer can be built in sections using fixing ties as work proceeds or pre built to act as an opening former by using a timber brace (see fig.2a) and corner forms (see fig.2b) For second fix applications, the cavity closer is pushed into the open cavity after building work is complete. The compressible nature of the exposed insulation material is used to create a friction fit in the cavity, or alternatively the insulation can be trimmed to fit using a sharp knife Joining off cut sections should be kept to a minimum and not carried out to sill sections. Sections are joined by mitre cutting the closer profile to allow the downward cut to run away from the jamb. Insulation should be extended from the lower closer profile to allow this to slot into the upper profile to maintain a rigid section. All overlaps to be tape sealed Page 1 of 2 see next page 33
