Keep above freezing VISCONN must be kept above freezing at all times. This includes time spent sitting on the job site. Delivery trucks often leave packages outside without signature. Know when your package is due to arrive and avoid leaving it out in freezing conditions. Check immediately upon delivery to ensure what has been delivered is not frozen.

Applications

Liquid-applied air barrier for robust connections. For use as WRB, flashing for pitched windows sills, and other detailing. VISCONN can be brushed, rolled or sprayed on as a liquid film and dries to form a seamless, elastic, airtight and vapour-variable membrane.

Advantages

• Time-saving airsealing of difficult junction because of airless spray/brush application
• PHI-Certified airbarrier - for interior with vapour-variable properties
• IFT Rosenheim certification as airtight/waterproof joint sealing for insulated window frame rough opening gaps
• For use as WRB on exterior behind rainscreens when shielded from long term UV exposure
• Use appropriate safety protection when using airless sprayer
• Available in two color options: one that is blue when wet and dries black to confirm drying, one that is white when both wet or dry

Substrates

• Apply to walls, ceilings and floor surfaces, such as masonry, CMU, wood sheathing, fiberboard, joists or joist bays
• Reliably fills gaps of up to 1/8". Deeper joints and thick coats result in longer cure times.
• Highly porous/uneven materials require 2 or more coats for reliable coverage/airsealing
• It may be necessary to apply more than one coat in the case of uneven or rough subsurfaces
• Can be plastered/painted over, Pro Clima adhesive tapes can be bonded onto it (and can be sprayed over all TESCON/CONTEGA Pro Clima tapes)
