Storage

• LeakBarrier EasyLay UDL HT rolls must be stored indoors, in a dry location.
• Rolls must be stored on end only. Do not store in a leaning position.
• Rolls must be protected from the elements. Do not expose to direct sunlight.
• Store rolls at room temperature. Prolonged exposure to elevated temperatures may reduce the adhesive characteristics of the material

General Precautions

• Install LeakBarrier EasyLay UDL HT in strict compliance with applicable Building Code.
• Follow Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) safety standards; use common sense measures and adequate precautions to prevent accidents.
• Install rolls only when material interface temperatures (air, deck, material) are 40°F and rising.
• Do not install when any form of moisture such as water, ice, snow, dew, rain, etc. is present.
• Ensure roof has positive slope and drainage prior to installation.
• EasyLay UDL HT is considered a vapor barrier. Proper ventilation is critical. Ensure installation does not interfere with existing ventilation.
• When applying over the entire roof deck, the roofing system must provide sufficient ventilation.
• A full, irreversible adhesion is achieved when the underlayment goes through a complete heat cycle. Do not not attempt to remove the underlayment immediately after adhesion to the substrate.
• Use of a hand-held “hot air gun” might help in enhancing the adhesion during application of underlayment in cooler weather.
• EasyLay UDL HT shall not be torched or hot-mopped to.
• When installing copper or zinc roofing over EasyLay UDL HT, it is required to use a batten system.
• EasyLay UDL HT must be covered with a finished roof covering within the specified exposure time of the product. Refer to section on Features and Benefits for exposure time.

Surface Preparation

• The substrate shall be clean, dry, and without voids when installing LeakBarrier EasyLay UDL HT.
• Consult applicable Technical Bulletin at the Tarco website prior to installation.
• Old roofing and other loose material must be removed before installation.
• Acceptable substrates for adhesion of LeakBarrier membranes can be found at the Tarco website.
• Surface may be primed with an ASTM D41 primer, water-based acrylic primer or water-based modified primer prior to installing EasyLay UDL HT. If primer is used, ensure it is fully dry before application of the membrane
