- Subsequently, the recess produced on the surface of the insulating panel is regularized with the mortar WALACE®
Recommendations
- The plug must be inserted at least 50 mm into the holder.
- The plug must cut the insulation panel by 1-2 mm. If the plug is not inserted into the insulation, the insulation will marked on the final finish.
- Hammering into studs with nails already installed is not recommended as it may cause damage to the plate.
- The hole in solid materials should be cleaned of any debris prior to installation.
- Check that the blocks are securely fixed.
- Depending on the thickness of the insulation panel, the following thicknesses of WalAce FIXING ANCHOR are recommended:
| Type of anchor | TRADITERM insulation board thickness (mm) | Anchor block length (10 mm thick adhesive mortar layer + 20 mm thick existing plaster layer) | Minimum number of anchors / m² (usual situations) | Homologation anchor block | |
| Substrates type A,B,C y D | Substrates type E | 6 | ETA-16/0509 | ||
