T-Wind Basic

The T-Wind Basic wind protection should be installed in a system with airtight joint aids such as sealing tape T-Flex Outdoor, Airtight-T, or T-Stos butyl for pass-throughs, etc. (see separate installation instructions).

Generally, the climate screen is attached to the outside of the insulated frame. The attachment should be done sparingly with corrosion-protected staples and then fixed with nailed battens (see separate installation instructions). The attachment can also be done with double-sided joint tape T-Duo/joint band T-Butyl along entire attachment lines where mechanical fastening is not possible. With this attachment method, the strength against, for example, wind impact may decrease. For airtight connections to concrete surfaces, double-sided joint tape T-Duo Concrete is recommended. For more complicated seals and adhesive needs, T-Fix adhesive and sealing compound can be used.

• Splicing aids such as tape or splice bands must be approved for use in systems with T-Wind Basic.
• Fasteners such as staples or nails must be corrosion-protected.
• Storage and warehousing should always be done packaged or in a way that the wind protection fabric is protected from UV radiation and higher temperatures.
• Poor weather conditions during installation are always a risk factor for moisture damage.
• When mounting with double-sided tape (Joint Tape T-Duo/Joint Band T-Butyl), the strength against, for example, wind impact may decrease.
• T-Wind Basic has UV protection (sunlight) equivalent to a construction period of 3 months, as a wind barrier. Thereafter, the wind barrier should be covered by the facade. For lasting water resistance (W2), during the summer months, UV exposure should be reduced to a maximum of 6 weeks.
