Pro Clima Intello Plus (3m folded to 1.6m)

Where to use it

Intello Plus vapour control membrane can be used internally on walls and ceilings in timber frame buildings or in the timber roof of masonry buildings. It is especially suited to lightweight constructions where fibrous or flexible insulation is used in the walls and ceilings.

When retrofitting airtightness to an existing building, Intello Plus can be used in the roof and ceilings.

What it does

Pro Clima Intello Plus, as a hydrosafe airtight intelligent vapour control membrane, differs from other more conventional membranes by having the ability to alter its diffusion resistance based on the current humidity of its surroundings. This ensures the risk of condensation is minimised, with no structural damage from moisture, mould, rot and damp. 

How it works

The construction phase often generates high humidity as wet building materials like concrete, plaster or screeds dry out or if materials stored on-site were not adequately protected from rain. In this situation, Intello Plus reacts to allow up to 100x more moisture to escape so the building can dry out far quicker than if a membrane with a fixed diffusion resistance was used. When moisture levels and humidity in the building are high, either from the construction, leaks caused by unintentional punctures in the membrane or by moisture transfer from adjoining structures (flanking), the risk of condensation and structural damage is greater; Intello Plus is the best choice to eliminate this risk and safeguard the structure for the entire lifetime of the building.

Why we love it

Intello Plus has three layers; a fleecy backing that reduces friction, so snags and tears are less likely to cause a hole and compromise the airtightness. The backing also makes the membrane easier to install by improving its mobility when sliding over surfaces. The middle layer is the airtight intelligent membrane and the third layer is a super strong mesh that greatly increases the tensile strength and nail/staple tear resistance. This reinforcement makes Intello Plus perfectly suitable for any type of blown-in (dense-pack) insulation due to it having a very low amount of stretch.

The quality and effectiveness of Intello Plus has been independently tested, verified and approved by leading certification bodies. These include The British Board of Agrement (BBA), Passive House Institute (with the best ever results), The National Standards Authority of Ireland (NSAI) and others.

Pro Clima Intello Plus has now received European Technical Approval (ETA) and is the 1st Intelligent airtightness membrane that has proven its durability in accordance with EN Norms. Based on independent accelerated aging tests, Intello Plus has a life expectancy of at least 50 years; no other Intelligent membrane has attained this level of performance to date.

System warranty

Pro Clima provide a limited system warranty, backed-up with public liability insurance, for all airtightness system, roof and wall sealing system and construction products that they supply. A 10-year warranty is provided for these products when correctly installed in combination with approved thermal insulation materials and other Pro Clima system products.  When correctly installed in combination with other manufacturers’ products (not made by Pro Clima), a 6-year warranty is provided.
