Description
PERMINATOR underslab vapor barrier is a new generation of polyolefin-based resin/chemical technology. PERMINATOR provides the vapor barrier industry with a highly effective, economical choice for helping to reduce the penetration of moisture and water vapor through the slab into the structure, thereby helping to reduce fungus, mildew, and mold growth. PERMINATOR also helps reduce radon gas from entering the structure.
PERMINATOR is available in 10 mil and 15 mil thicknesses. Both versions are furnished in 200′ (61 m) long rolls.
Features
- Helps reduce the penetration of moisture and water vapor through the slab into the structure.
- Helps reduce fungus, mildew, and mold.
- Helps reduce radon gas from entering a structure.
- Tough enough to withstand normal construction jobsite conditions and traffic … will not crack, puncture, snag, split, or tear easily.
- Installs quickly and easily over tamped grade … no gravel, fill, or sand needed.
- 12′ (15 mil) and 15′ (10 mil) wide rolls require fewer seams in application.
- PERMINATOR prevents uncontrolled moisture from entering the slab allowing the slab to maintain the maximum slab moisture emission rate and relative humidity level as allowed by flooring manufacturer’s specifications.
- VOC content is 0 g/L.
- Made in America.
Uses
- PERMINATOR underslab vapor barrier is primarily designed for underslab construction, where the soil has been tamped and leveled or compacted fill has been applied. The 200′ (61 m) long sheets are unrolled as is or cut to size and installed using the overlapping method. Overlaps are 6″ (152.4 mm) wide and these seams are sealed using 4″ (101.6 mm) wide PERMINATOR TAPE.
- PERMINATOR can also be used as a protection course for waterproofing membranes. The desired sheet lengths are cut to size and retained at the top of the waterproofing membranes by PERMINATOR TAPE or TERMINATION BAR from W R. MEADOWS.
