IKO Armourbase Pro PLUS has all the features of the Armourbase PRO underlayment and goes even a step further…

IKO Armourbase Pro PLUS is a modern and flexible bituminous roof underlayment with bituminous strips for adhesion of overlapping.

Thanks to these self-adhesive overlaps , one does NOT have to overlap by 50% at low slope (15-20°):

in other words saving money and time!

This also creates an increased protection against the risk of water infiltration along the area of mechanical fixing.

Application instructions

It is essential to allow heat dissipation and water vapour to escape the roof system through proper ventilation. Therefore, air must be able to circulate freely between insulation and the nailable roof deck, from the eaves to the ridges.

On roof pitches 15°- 40° the minimum net free ventilation area is 33 cm²,

on 41°- 85° min. net free ventilation area is 16 cm² for each 1 m² of insulated ceiling area (P),

always divided evenly between the eaves and the ridge.
