There are situations where it is preferable to approach damp control measures from a different direction. This is particularly relevant where partial or full fill insulation terminates horizontally (at plate level) across a gable wall. The Type CD Cavity Dropcloak is manufactured by Cavity Trays of Yeovil provides an easy compliant approach accompanied with several benefits.
The Type CD Dropcloak is a pre-shaped DPC cavitray moulded from Petheleyne. It is supported in position by being partially built into the inner skin only. It functions as a protective cloaking section that drops downwardly and forwardly in the cavity, guarding against wet transference via the upper surface of any insulation, cavity barrier or impinging masonry under it.
By eliminating the need to build and support into both skins, installation is speedy and the problem should skins not offer matching or ideal alignment levels - does not even arise. The approved Petheleyne Type CD Dropcloak is manufactured only by Cavity Trays of Yeovil and is accompanied with a performance warranty.
