Recticel Eurothane Eurodeck Flat Roof Board
Recticel Eurothane Eurodeck Flat Roof Board
Recticel Eurothane Eurodeck is a PIR insulation board for warm flat roofs finished with compatible bituminous waterproofing systems. It is not the same product as Eurothane GP, even though both use PIR cores.
The board facing and roof application are selected for use beneath the waterproofing layer. It can be used in new roofs and refurbishment work over suitable decks.
Keep boards dry, stagger joints and install the waterproofing without leaving the insulation exposed to weather or site traffic.
Why Choose This Product?
Choose this because its facing and board properties are made for the stated waterproofing system. A cheaper general-purpose PIR board is not automatically an acceptable substitute on a flat roof.
Key Features
· Warm flat roof PIR board
· For compatible bituminous systems
· Large 2400 x 1200mm boards
· New build and refurbishment
Common Uses
· Built-up felt roofs

Installation
Cut boards or rolls accurately, close every joint and keep the insulation layer continuous at corners, openings and service penetrations. Use the fixings, tapes, membranes and covering layers stated for the selected construction.
Before You Install
· Substituting general-purpose PIR for a roof board with different facings.
· Leaving boards exposed to rain or site traffic.
· Ignoring the waterproofing manufacturer's compatibility requirements.
· Laying four board corners at one point instead of staggering joints.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can this replace standard PIR?
Only where the waterproofing and roof-system documents permit it. Flat-roof board facings are selected for particular membranes and adhesives.
Can it be left outside overnight?
No. Keep boards dry and cover the installed area promptly.
Should joints be staggered?
Yes. Stagger joints and avoid lining up four board corners.
Can I walk directly on it?
Limit traffic and use temporary protection. The finished roof layers distribute loads.
Which thickness do I need?
That comes from the required roof U-value and the complete roof build-up.
What You'll Need
· Vapour-control layer
· Roof insulation fixings
· Compatible waterproofing system
· Protection board where specified
· Tapered firrings or tapered insulation where falls are required
