Installation
To install Novia Black+ Construction Wrap, affix it to the wall structure, ensuring that upper layers overlap lower layers. Work from the bottom upwards, maintaining a minimum overlap of 100mm for horizontal joints. Vertical lap joints should be at least 150mm and should not begin within 300mm of a corner. Ensure the bottom timber is protected with an overlap. Fix the membrane at suitable intervals using galvanised nails, stainless staples, or other permanent fixings. Avoid exposing the membrane to weathering, high winds, or excessive UV for extended periods, as this could cause damage over time. If exposure is necessary, consider using suitable temporary protection materials.
Tapes
We recommend using Novia installation tapes to enhance the final installation quality. Tapes improve performance, airtightness, and allow for easy repairs of any unexpected on-site damage.
