DURABILITY
Facade membranes are critical to the building’s weatherproofing, comfort and energy efficiency, moreover, they play a key role in enhancing the facade’s durability.
PREVENTING
Breather membranes act as a protective underlay and shield against driving rain and wind, while allowing water vapor to pass through, thus preventing mould build up in geographies with wet and cold seasons.
EFFICIENCY
Effisus Breather FR UV is an A1 fire rated membrane that ensures the highest standards in watertightness and UV exposure, resulting therefore in a positive contribution to the building’s safety, efficiency and longevity.
DETAIL
For peace of mind and compliance, this solution is backed by solid test results, proven real conditions and it is fully in line with the Building Safety Act (BSA) and is approved for unrestricted use in High-Risk Buildings (HRB). Extremely robust and durable, Effisus Breather FR UV is complemented by a full range of dedicated accessories for fixing the membrane in place, addressing overlaps, sealing the perimeter and finally sealing punctual perforations. The result is a complete, reliable, and easy-to-install system that saves time on site while guaranteeing long-term performance.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
GENERAL GUIDELINES
It is the end user's responsibility to ensure the quality of installation by following the installation instructionsin this document and by periodically checking the installed materials. Effisus is always available, upon request, to train working staff.
STORAGE
Effisus Breather FR UV Membrane and system accessories should be stored on a hard, clean and dedicated stand, in a place that can protect them from extreme weather conditions or the risk of puncture.Materials should be kept within a temperature range of 5ºC to 20ºC. Rolls should be stored flat on their sides, on a smooth, clean, dry surface, under cover, protected from sunlight and extreme weather conditions or the risk of puncture.
INSTALLATION CONDITIONS
-Effisus Breather FR UV Membrane should be carefully transported and applied, to avoid sharp substrate edges, dust and debris contamination and the risk of tearing or loss of integrity. -Bonding should be carried out on clean, dry, grease and dust-free supports. -Surface preparation: before applying any Effisus Breather FR UV System accessories, surfaces mustbe thoroughly cleaned using Effisus Cleaner LV. The substrate should also be degreased completely. A primer should be used for surface preparation and treatment of porous surfaces, or application within a temperature range of 5ºC - 10ºC to improve surface adhesion of the Effisus membrane system. Allow the primer to dry to the touch (no material transfer). Dry time will vary depending on ambient temperature and humidity (typically less than 20 minutes).
-Effisus Breather FR UV Membrane should always be applied to a high density, rigid substrate or mineral wool (or similar), minimizing insufficient cohesion to the substrate. -Effisus Breather FR UV Membrane should not be tensioned. -Effisus Breather FR UV Membrane should be applied using the accessories recommended in this document. -In case of precipitation (rain, snow, dense fog or any risk of condensation), application of the adhesive/sealant must be suspended. -After installation, the Effisus Breather FR UV Membrane should not have any loose ends exposed to wind or work done by other contractors, and should be protected with protective boards, insulation or metallic sheeting. -All other materials in contact with Effisus products should be submitted for further technical evaluationand tested for compatibility.
