Knauf Insulation OmniFit - 600mm X 100mm

The OmniFit slab is designed for thermal and acoustic insulation in walls, floors, and partitions, helping to improve building comfort and energy efficiency.

It refers to the optimal fit for framing or cavity spacing where studs or joists are spaced 600mm apart (center-to-center).

While primarily designed for walls, floors, and partitions, its thermal and acoustic properties could potentially be beneficial in roof applications, provided it is installed correctly and protected from moisture.

A sharp insulation knife or a fine-toothed saw is typically recommended for clean and accurate cuts.

It is recommended to wear gloves, eye protection, and a dust mask to avoid skin irritation and inhalation of fibers.

By reducing heat transfer through walls, floors, and partitions, it helps maintain a consistent indoor temperature, lowering the demand on heating and cooling systems.

The insulation itself should be kept dry. It is not a vapor barrier. Protection from moisture ingress should be provided by the building's envelope and finishes.

Re-measure and re-cut slabs for a precise fit. Ensure no compression is applied during installation. Check framing for uniformity.

Verify that insulation is installed without gaps and is not compressed. Ensure any required vapor barriers are correctly installed and sealed.

Check for any unsealed gaps around penetrations (pipes, wires) or at the edges of the insulation. Seal these gaps with appropriate acoustic sealant.

Ensure the product is stored in a dry location and protected from moisture during and after installation. Address any sources of water ingress in the building structure.
