Excellent thermal properties

Application:

ARC Eco-Closer Plus closes wider cavities around window and door openings in masonry walls, providing up to two hours fire integrity. The rigid PVCu profile is insulated with foil faced non-combustible rockfibre mineral wool which provides fire and thermal protection.The person installing the Eco-Closer Plus should first familiarise themselves with the datasheet, ensuring the correct product is being fitted into the cavity.

All performance claims made are evidenced in the IFC certification IFCC 1729.

Installation instructions

ARC Eco-Closer Plus is easily installed. Cut the jamb profile to the height of the window or door opening plus 75mm to allow the bottom edges to drop into the cavity below the sill. Once the jamb sections are installed, measure the required width for the sill section and cut a length to butt tightly to the jamb sections. ARC Fixing Brackets should be used to mechanically fix EcoCloser Plus to the inner blockwork, while ARC Brick Ties are then used to build the closer in as the external brickwork progresses. We recommend a minimum of 2 of each is used per metre, or piece, whichever is shorter. If a longer length than 2.4m is required, the profile complete with insulation should carefully be cut using a hand saw. Lengths can then be tightly butted together, with care being taken to ensure no gaps remain. It is always recommended to fit the closer so that the plastic profile is against the external brickwork rather than the internal blockwork. Care should be taken when handling the product to ensure that the mineral wool isn’t damaged.
