Application
APPLICATION
Sarnafil® S 327-72 Feltback EnergySmart is rolled out after proper preparation of the approved substrate and attached to the roof deck with appropriate mechanically-attached system with sarnafasteners in accordance with Sika’s technical requirements. Sarnafil® S 327-72 Feltback EnergySmart seams are heat‐welded together by trained operators using hot‐air welding equipment. Different mechanically-attached systems require different application methods. Please consult Sika’s Specifications or Applicator Handbook for detailed installation procedures.
