It is essential that the installer be well-trained and fully understand the methods of application for the specific type of MINERAL DESIGN product being installed. Installation of this membrane should be performed only by a professional roofing contractor, well-trained in the methods described herein.

BITEC, INC. has produced this product within design tolerances, and is not responsible for the improper and/or unsuccessful installation of this product.

Each design has a specific pattern repeat, so in order to align the pattern and achieve maximum utilization of the roll, a certain portion of the repeat must be removed.

The installer should expect to have a certain percentage of waste on each project. To help approximate the material needed, the table on this page is given designating each pattern's repeat length.

You may have to remove up to and including 50% of this figure for alignment purposes, depending upon project requirements. Also, remember that you must provide a 6" minimum endlap.

When cutting the membrane, it is recommended that the applicator use a straight-edge. Side lap alignment is essential to successfully complete the pattern. A factory 4.0" side lap is provided with adjacent design to facilitate this.
