Novia FlamePro A1 FR Reflective AVCL Air & Vapour Control Layer – 1.48m x 50m

Novia FlamePro A1 FR is a premium, high-performance reflective Air & Vapour Control Layer (AVCL) designed for insulated wall and roof applications where effective air and moisture vapour control is required. Its reflective surface can contribute to the thermal performance of the building, while the membrane provides an airtight layer within an appropriately designed construction.

Supplied as a 1.48m x 50m roll, each roll provides 74m² nominal coverage.

Why Choose Novia FlamePro A1 FR?

Key benefits include:

  • 1.48m x 50m roll
  • 74m² nominal coverage
  • Premium reflective Air & Vapour Control Layer
  • Designed for insulated walls and roofs
  • Provides effective moisture vapour control
  • Low moisture vapour permeability
  • Fully airtight air leakage barrier
  • Reflective face
  • Can contribute towards improved thermal performance
  • Suitable for demanding construction applications
  • Designed to help manage moisture movement through insulated constructions
  • White reverse face
  • Reflective face supplied without text or images
  • Suitable for professional construction projects

What Is an Air & Vapour Control Layer?

An Air & Vapour Control Layer, commonly abbreviated to AVCL, is incorporated into insulated building constructions to help control both air leakage and the movement of water vapour.

In a correctly designed construction, an AVCL can help:

  • Control moisture vapour entering the insulated building fabric
  • Reduce uncontrolled air leakage
  • Support condensation risk management
  • Improve building airtightness
  • Support the thermal performance of the completed construction

Novia FlamePro A1 FR combines these functions with a reflective surface for use within suitable wall and roof build-ups.

Reflective AVCL for Walls and Roofs

Novia FlamePro A1 FR is suitable for use within insulated wall and roof applications where high-performance air and vapour control is required.

Typical applications can include:

  • Insulated wall constructions
  • Insulated roof constructions
  • Timber frame construction
  • Framed wall systems
  • Commercial construction
  • Residential construction
  • Projects requiring an airtight AVCL
  • Applications requiring high moisture vapour resistance

The exact location and installation of the AVCL should be determined according to the complete construction design and project requirements.

High Moisture Vapour Resistance

Novia FlamePro A1 FR is designed to provide very low moisture vapour permeability, helping control the passage of moisture vapour into insulated building elements.

Effective vapour control is particularly important in insulated walls and roofs, where uncontrolled moisture movement can contribute to interstitial condensation within the construction.

The AVCL should therefore be incorporated as part of an appropriately designed building envelope.

Airtight Air Leakage Barrier

In addition to controlling moisture vapour, Novia FlamePro A1 FR provides a fully airtight air leakage barrier when correctly installed and appropriately sealed.

Improved airtightness can help reduce uncontrolled air movement through the building fabric, supporting the overall energy and thermal performance of the building.

Particular attention should be given to:

  • Membrane laps
  • Joints
  • Edges
  • Penetrations
  • Service openings
  • Interfaces with adjoining building elements

These areas should be appropriately detailed and sealed to maintain the continuity of the air control layer.

Reflective Air & Vapour Control Layer

Novia FlamePro A1 FR features a reflective face that can contribute towards the thermal performance of the completed building envelope when incorporated correctly into an appropriate construction.

Reflective membranes work by reducing radiant heat transfer across an adjacent suitable cavity.

Actual thermal performance will depend on the complete wall or roof build-up, cavity arrangement and installation.

Designed for Insulated Construction

Novia FlamePro A1 FR is designed for applications where insulation forms part of the wall or roof construction.

By providing both air and vapour control, the membrane helps create a controlled internal layer within the insulated building envelope.

The product should be specified and installed as part of the complete construction rather than considered independently from the insulation, cavities and other membranes within the system.

Unprinted Reflective Face

The reflective face of Novia FlamePro A1 FR is supplied without text or printed images, while the reverse side is white.

The unprinted surface provides a clean reflective face for incorporation into the specified wall or roof construction.

1.48m x 50m Novia FlamePro A1 FR Roll

Each roll measures:

1.48m wide x 50m long

Providing a nominal area of:

1.48m x 50m = 74m²

Actual usable coverage will be lower once appropriate laps, joints, penetrations, detailing, cutting and general wastage are taken into account.

The 1.48m width provides a practical format for installation across insulated wall and roof constructions.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is Novia FlamePro A1 FR?

Novia FlamePro A1 FR is a reflective Air & Vapour Control Layer (AVCL) designed for use within insulated wall and roof constructions.

It combines moisture vapour control with an airtight air leakage barrier and reflective surface.

What size is a roll of Novia FlamePro A1 FR?

Each roll measures 1.48m wide x 50m long.

How much area does one roll cover?

A 1.48m x 50m roll provides:

74m² nominal coverage

Actual usable coverage will be lower once laps, joints, penetrations, cutting, detailing and wastage are taken into account.

What does AVCL mean?

AVCL stands for Air & Vapour Control Layer.

An AVCL helps control both uncontrolled air leakage and the movement of moisture vapour through an insulated building construction.

Where is Novia FlamePro A1 FR used?

Novia FlamePro A1 FR is designed for use within insulated wall and roof applications where effective moisture vapour resistance and airtightness are required.

Can Novia FlamePro A1 FR be used in walls?

Yes. The membrane is suitable for insulated wall applications when incorporated into an appropriately designed construction.

Can Novia FlamePro A1 FR be used in roofs?

Yes. Novia FlamePro A1 FR is suitable for insulated roof applications where an Air & Vapour Control Layer is required.

Is Novia FlamePro A1 FR airtight?

Yes. The membrane is designed to provide a fully airtight air leakage barrier when correctly installed and appropriately sealed.

The continuity of the membrane at joints, laps, edges and penetrations is important to the airtightness of the completed installation.

Does Novia FlamePro A1 FR control water vapour?

Yes. Novia FlamePro A1 FR provides very low moisture vapour permeability, helping control the movement of water vapour through insulated wall and roof constructions.

Why is vapour control important?

Water vapour generated within occupied buildings can move towards colder parts of the building envelope.

An appropriately specified and installed AVCL helps control this moisture movement and forms part of the overall strategy for managing condensation risk within insulated constructions.

Does an AVCL improve airtightness?

Yes. An AVCL can form part of the building’s airtightness strategy by limiting uncontrolled air leakage through the building envelope.

Novia FlamePro A1 FR is specifically designed to provide an airtight air leakage barrier when correctly installed and sealed.

Is Novia FlamePro A1 FR reflective?

Yes. The product has a reflective face, with a white finish on the reverse.

Can a reflective AVCL improve thermal performance?

A reflective membrane can contribute towards improved thermal performance by reducing radiant heat transfer when correctly positioned adjacent to a suitable cavity.

Actual performance depends on the complete construction, cavity arrangement and installation.

Why is the reflective face unprinted?

The reflective face is supplied without text or images, providing an uninterrupted reflective surface within the construction.

Do I need to seal the joints and penetrations?

Correct sealing and detailing are important where the membrane is required to provide a continuous air and vapour control layer.

Laps, joints, edges, service penetrations and interfaces with adjoining construction elements should be treated according to the manufacturer’s installation guidance and project specification.

Do I need to allow for laps and wastage?

Yes. The 74m² figure is the nominal area of the complete roll.

Allowance should be made for appropriate laps, joints, penetrations, detailing, cutting and general wastage when calculating the quantity required.
