Limitations Owens Corning Canada Inc. does not recommend using PROPINK Blown Glass Fibre Insulation in the following locations: Roof-spaces with ceilings having a slope greater than 4.5 : 12. Wood or steel framed walls in new or existing buildings, whether above or below ground. In such cases, PINK FIBERGLAS Thermal Batt Insulation can be used (refer to Data Sheet 07 2116.16.OCC PINK FIBERGLAS Thermal Batt Insulation). Components PINK colour and glass fibre, manufactured from recycled materials obtained from two sources: "Post-industrial" (or "preconsumer"): glass recycled from glass manufacturing plants' waste (glass containers, flat glass and others). "Post-consumer": glass materials recycled from construction sites (demolition work, new construction and renovation) and from consumers' "blue boxes". Includes materials that contribute to the reduction of dust and static electricity, ensuring a clean and easy installation. This product does not include any phenol-formaldehyde bonding agent. PROPINK Blown Glass Fibre Insulation contains no perlite, vermiculite or phenol-formaldehyde binder.

Insulation's contribution to the performance Insulation contributes significantly to the reduction of a building's energy demand. Global contribution depends on the design RSI value. PROPINK Blown Glass Fibre Insulation: (Edmonton 60+% postconsumer, 0% postindustrial; Toronto 50+% post-consumer, 10% post-industrial). Canadian Insulation products originating from the 2 FIBERGLAS plants (Toronto, Edmonton) contribute towards credits for this category. Glass Fibre Insulation is effective in reducing noise transfer through building assemblies.

IDENTIFICATION Each bag of insulation is labelled with information as required by CAN/ULC-S702, along with the CCMC evaluation listing number 12851-L. APPLICATION Preparation Where there are soffit vents, take appropriate measures to prevent blown glass fibre insulation from accumulating and blocking the air ventilation and also to prevent the insulation from being displaced due to wind penetration through the soffit vents. Install Owens Corning raft-R-mate attic vents. Applicator Protection Ensure applicator's personnel wears protection equipment such as breathing masks (dust-proof type masks prescribed in Product Data Sheet), face and eye protection (safety goggles or eye glasses) and skin protection (gloves, long-sleeved shirts and pants). TECHNICAL SERVICES Owens Corning Canada Inc. Regional Technical Support Representatives can assist with technical questions. QUALITY CONTROL Owens Corning Canada Inc. regularly submits its products to independent agencies that certify their environmental quality in terms of: Toxic chemical and volatile particle emissions affecting indoor air quality and the ozone layer. Recycled materials content. A Certificate of Coverage form is available to the applicator to be filled-in and signed in accordance with requirements of CAN/ULCS702; it must be posted on site during the Work and remitted to the Owner. Pneumatic Application Product applied in unconfined spaces with slopes not exceeding 4.5: 12 and in accordance with manufacturer's data illustrated in the following APPLICATION CHART. Humidity Wet insulation must be replaced or left to dry by providing an adequate air circulation. If the insulation is not compressed, it will recover its initial thermal resistance.
