acceptable. The substrate must be clean, smooth, dry, free of flaws, debris and other irregularities.
Follow Flex Specifications and NRCA recommendations for installation of wood nailers around
perimeters and penetrations. Install approved insulation according to Flex’s standard fastening
requirements or applicable code whichever is more stringent. The membrane is mechanically attached
using the disk and fastener in the seam method. Fastener spacing increments are determined by the
projects specification criteria and or printed guide specifications. For adhered systems, the membrane is
laminated to the appropriate substrate using Flex Fleeceback Substrate Adhesive. All seams are
completed by the hot air welding method. All non-factory cut edges must be sealed with Flex Clear TPO
Cut-Edge Sealant. Contact the Flex Technical Service Department for the specific design requirements
and installation procedures for these two systems.
