VaporPro™ Vapor Barrier
VaporPro™ is an ASTM-certified vapor barrier designed for high-performance moisture protection under concrete slabs. Manufactured in the USA with prime virgin resins, this vapor retarder offers superior puncture resistance and tensile strength, making it a reliable choice for builders seeking to prevent moisture intrusion in construction projects.
Why Choose VaporPro™ Vapor Barrier?
Builders and contractors choose VaporPro™ because it exceeds the performance requirements for a Class A vapor retarder. With its low permeance (less than 0.1 perms) and excellent tensile strength (>50 lbf/in), VaporPro™ ensures that moisture from the ground is kept at bay, protecting the concrete slab and prolonging the life of the structure.
Key benefits of VaporPro™:
- ASTM E1745 Class A certified
- High puncture resistance (2,645 grams)
- Superior tensile strength (>50 lbf/in)
- Low permeance for moisture control (less than 0.1 perms)
- Bright green color for easy visibility
- Available in 10-mil and 15-mil thickness
Installation Instructions
Installing VaporPro™ is simple and follows ASTM E1643 guidelines:
- Prepare the base by leveling and compacting the material (sand, tamped earth, or aggregate).
- Unroll VaporPro™ with the longest dimension parallel to the direction of the concrete pour.
- Overlap seams by at least 6 inches and seal them with VaporPro™ PE Film Tape for a watertight finish.
- Seal around all penetrations such as utilities to maintain a continuous barrier.
- Inspect for damage before pouring concrete and make repairs by overlapping 6 inches beyond the damaged area.
