Installation Guidelines for PAROC Hvac Pipe Sections

To ensure a high-quality end result, please follow these installation instructions.

Note: In some applications, such as fire insulation solutions, local regulations must be considered.

During the installation, both the object to be insulated and the insulation material should be at a minimum temperature of +10 Celsius.
Allow the temperature of the insulating material to adjust to the ambient installation temperature.
Always store the wrap tape at room temperature.
Check that the surfaces to be joined with tape are clean and dry.
Ensure that pipe section seams are tight but without extra tension. The same applies at supports and other projecting parts.
Secure the pipe section with steel wire, strapping or tape at 300 mm intervals.
Insulate pipe elbows either with PAROC Hvac Bend AluCoat T (link to PAROC Hvac Bend AluCoat T installation instruction) or by cutting segments of the pipe section. If you use segments, tape the joints between segments.
Finish the pipe section ends with end fittings. Bend the end fitting strip around the end and fix it using rivets.

Place the pipe section on a pipe.
Press the longitudinal surfaces tightly together.
Remove the paper covering from the tape.
Fold the flap to be sealed over the joint.
Do not overstretch the tape.
Press the joint tightly.
When finishing tape joints, use a trowel to ensure they are fastened tightly.
Secure the joint fixing mechanically with steel wire, tape or steel strapping or tape at intervals of max 300 mm.
To prevent condensation, seal the cross-joints properly with AluCoat tape.
When ending a condensation insulation, seal the end with tape towards the pipe.

Make the necessary cut-outs before installation.
Do not press joints too tightly together.
At support, secure the pipe section with steel wire or steel strapping.
Seal suspension support base with, for example, silicon.
To prevent condensation, seal any cuts or holes made on aluminium facing properly with AluCoat tape.
