PRODUCT DESCRIPTION CELFORT 200/CODEBORD PINK extruded polystyrene rigid insulation Air Barrier System serves to limit air leaks and infiltration through a building's envelope while increasing its thermal resistance. The system consists of: Principal system material: an extruded polystyrene insulation board assembly installed on the exterior face of the back-up wall (intermediate sheathing) and mechanically fastened through the sheathing to the wall framing supporting it. Rigid insulation can be installed directly on the wall framing (consult local technical support representative for testing reports). Accessory materials ensuring air barrier continuity by sealing joints in the assembly, penetrations through it and voids between the air barrier system and the wall openings; these materials are: - bituminous membrane strips; - sealants; - insulating air-resistant urethane foam. above do not apply. Consult applicable building Code for requirement and location of a vapour barrier. Additional Advantages: Air barrier systems may be installed at ambient air temperatures as low as -12ƒC (refer to Tables 1 and 2, Physical Properties of Air Barrier System Materials). Fire stops to block off concealed spaces within an insulated and airtight wall assembly are not required if the air space situated between the exposed insulation face and the wall cladding (masonry, metal and others) has a thickness not exceeding 25 mm (refer to NBC, article 3.1.11.2 Fire Stopping in Wall Assemblies); extruded polystyrene insulation's dimensional stability ensures a consistent cavity thickness as required by the designer to meet Code requirements. LEEDTM certification contribution: refer to Table 3 below. Note: CELFORT 200/CODEBORD is combustible and has a flame spread rating greater than 25 but less than 500.The NBC permits its use when it is protected by a thermal barrier meeting requirements of NBC subparagraphs 3.2.3.7 and 9.10.14.11 Construction of Exposing Building Faces. Limitations Owens Corning Canada Inc. does not recommend using CELFORT 200/ CODEBORD where the following conditions are not met: Recommended Uses General: Use CELFORT 200/CODEBORD for all types of high or low-rise buildings regulated under NBC Parts 3, 4, 5, 6 and 9 and for which the structural resistance of the back-up wall supporting the air barrier system and the measures to control thermal transfers, air leakage and condensation meet Code requirements of Sections 4.1 Structural Loads and Procedures, 5.4 Air Leakage and 9.25 Heat Transfer,Air Leakage and Condensation Control. Air Barrier Position within Building Envelope: The air barrier system has been designed to meet requirements of NBC article 9.25.1.2 governing the position of low air permeance materials (less than 0.1 L / s.m2 at 75 Pa) and low water vapour permeability (less than 60 ng / Pa.s.m2): Location of air barrier system in building envelope: - If back-up wall is a metal stud framing with voids filled with 92 mm or 152 mm thick batt fiberglass thermal insulation with a vapour retarder placed on its warm side: the air barrier system is placed on the exterior envelope and the foam board thickness and thermal resistance shall comply with NBC 9.25.1.2 (1) and Table 9.25.1.2 assembly outboard/inboard thermal resistance ratio requirements.The ratio shall never be less than 0.20 for whatever locality the building is situated in. - If back-up wall framing voids are empty: the requirements stated Product Data Sheet 07 27 23.13.OCC Celfort 200/CodeBord Air Barrier System 07 27 23.13.OCC Celfort 200/CodeBord Air Barrier System Product Data Sheet CELFORT 200/CODEBORD extruded polystyrene board insulation is a combustible product and its use is prohibited: Without a thermal barrier to protect it (i.e. gypsum board or other covering meeting NBC requirements). Without fire stopping in construction voids of insulated and air-tight cavity walls if the cavity is wider than 25 mm. If its position within the building envelope does not meet values required by NBC article 9.25.1.2 and its corresponding Table.

APPLICATION Safety Measures: Applicator Protection This product is combustible and may constitute a fire risk if not used or installed properly. Although it contains a fire-suppressing agent, the product will ignite if exposed to a sufficiently intense flame. Do not expose to open flames or any other ignition source during transport, handling, storage or use. Board joint sealing: Primer for membrane strips: use of a primer to ensure superior adhesion between membrane strips and polystyrene boards is optional and does not influence air barrier system performance. Consult an Owens Corning Canada regional technical support representative to evaluate use of a primer in such cases. Seal joints with a 100 mm wide strip of membrane, centered on joints. or Trowel-apply a joint sealer to each board perimeter and butt boards tightly to ensure a complete air barrier system. Sealing of fissures and voids between air barrier system and adjacent building components ensuring air barrier continuity: Apply appropriate materials - membrane strips, gun-applied adhesive and polyurethane foam - to complete air barrier tightness and at locations where air barrier system meets adjacent building components forming part of the exterior building envelope in the plane of the air barrier system. Consult an Owens Corning Canada regional technical support representative for appropriate selection of fasteners and adhesives.
