  • Strict adherence to the instructions on the package will help prevent various types of errors and alterations during the installation process. The edges of the Ecover products should be neat so that the joints are as flat as possible and suitable for further processing.
  • Mineral insulation is recommended to firmly fix to a particular surface in order to create a truly high-quality effect. For reliable insulation of the roof of a flat type, insulation boards should be laid in 2 layers. If the installation is made in the attic, which is in operation, then in this case it is necessary to use a special two-layer mineral wool.
  • Starting to cut the plates of "Ecover", it is recommended to strictly adhere to the desired size in order to prevent the appearance of cracks, which can become sources of cold penetration. This stage of work should be done in special protective clothing, as well as gloves, glasses and a mask. The room where the installation is carried out should be subject to full ventilation. It is categorically impossible to move along the surface of the plates in order not to disturb their protective properties.
