Fitting Information

Watch our How-To Video to see how easy it is to install EcoQuilt Expert in various applications.

Measure the Area and Cut the EcoQuilt to Size

Cutting EcoQuilt Expert insulation to size

Measure the area of either the wall or roof section, depending on where you would like to insulate first, and cut. You can cut using either our cutting knife or multifoil scissors — both of which come as part of the Multifoil Fitting Kit we supply.

Staple EcoQuilt to the Timber

Stapling EcoQuilt Expert multifoil insulation to timber rafters

Proceed by stapling the multifoil insulation directly to the timber, whether that's the rafters, studs, or battens. This is the best way to enable the EcoQuilt to perform, as it provides an air cavity behind the insulation.

When stapling, leave 300mm intervals.

Proceed Until Full Coverage

Overlapping strips of EcoQuilt Expert insulation

Install the second strip of EcoQuilt.

Important: overlap the EcoQuilt by 50mm, on both the horizontal and vertical joints.

Tape Using ThermaSeal Foil Joining Tape

Taping and sealing EcoQuilt insulation joints with ThermaSeal foil tape

Use the ThermaSeal Foil Joining Tape to tape and seal all the joints and edges. You will need to ensure that the EcoQuilt is fully taped and sealed around the perimeter, as this creates the vapour control barrier.

Counter Batten and Plasterboard

Counter battens installed over EcoQuilt insulation before plasterboard finish

Once the EcoQuilt layer has been installed, install a secondary set of battens over the top of the insulation. You can then proceed with your internal finish over the battens.

We advise using battens at 400mm to 600mm centres.
