- KindSilicone
- Approved by the British Board of Agrément.
- Compliments the Wykamol Group range of rising damp treatments.
Amorphous substrates such as solid chalk, (unfired) clay etc. may not be suitable for chemical damp proofing treatments. Some walls filled with earth are similarly unsuitable.
All treatments should be in accordance with BS 6576:1985 (Code of Practice for the installation of chemical damp-proof courses). In particular, the inserted DPC should be below the level of a timber floor unless prevented by structural considerations. Such floors should be inspected due to the risk of fungal decay.
Note: Wykamit PI is designed to control capillary moisture movement only. Walls heavily impregnated with microscopic salts or suffering from the effects of penetrating or condensation dampness may require further measures* (see 'reinstatement' on Product Guide) to create a dry internal environment.
