1. Prepare the wall surface for the insulation layer by removing existing skirting, picture rails and window boards, as well as any wall coverings with high vapour resistance, such as vinyl wallpaper or gloss paint.

2. Measure and cut the insulation boards to allow for a 15mm clearance gap at the floor and ceiling joints.

3. Apply adhesive around the perimeter of the wall and around any openings such as windows and doors.

4. Apply the adhesive dabs directly to the wall in vertical rows. Each dab should be around 250mm long and minimum 50mm thick. Enough dabs should be applied to the wall to ensure a minimum of 20% of the insulation surface area will be fixed to the dabs.

5. Fix Mannok Therm Laminate-Kraft / MLK insulation boards to the wall with the edges are tightly butted together to ensure continuity of insulation and avoid thermal bridging issues.

6. Secure the insulation boards with 2 secondary mechanical fixings at mid height and at a minimum of 15mm from the board edge. The screws which fix the Mannok Therm Laminate-Kraft / MLK insulation to the masonry structure should be selected to minimise heat loss. U-value calculations for the wall should account for the additional heat loss resulting from mechanical fasteners.

7. Seal the 15mm clearance gap at the floor and ceiling with a continuous strip of drylining adhesive.
