    Aluminum Foil Vapor Barrier - Superior Saunas
    Description

    Pure aluminum foil, 48" wide roll, tape optional.  A vapor barrier is a crucial component for traditional sauna room construction. Foil vapor barrier will protect the building structure by blocking moisture from getting inside walls and is used by most sauna manufacturers. Optional high temperature foil tape is recommended for best results. Staple foil vapor barrier behind tongue & groove sauna wood paneling on walls and ceiling. It also adds 1R insulation efficiency by reflecting radiant heat back into the sauna room. Foil Vapor Barrier is also commonly used in walls near tub/shower for bathroom remodeling.

    This is the proper sauna foil vapor barrier made for new construction or remodeled saunas. Foil vapor barrier outlasts plastic vapor barriers which will deteriorate from heat and release gases (and no longer protect walls from moisture). Gain 1R of insulation and the reflective heat efficiency of alum foil radiating behind the paneling. The best heat reflective vapor barrier made for any heated structure.

    Contact us for a free sample, mailed to you. Plastic vapor barriers should not be used for sauna construction, as they will deteriorate from 200F + degrees and no longer protect walls from moisture vapor.

    INSTALLATION: Aluminum foil vapor barrier is clean, light and easy to install by tacking or stapling. Installs behind sauna wood paneling with reflective side facing in towards you (sauna interior). Overlap seams approx 2-3" inches for effective seal. The best results are achieved by sealing joints with the high-temperature Aluminum Foil Tape (other types of tape will deteriorate from heat).
