Requirements for Thermal Barrier and Ignition Barrier coverings must be met as per the applicable building code as required by the authority having jurisdiction. • Icynene ProSeal™ pper ACC377 Appendix X test reporting is approved for use in limited access attics and crawl spaces without an ignition barrier or an intumescent paint coating. AIR BARRIER/ MECHANICAL VENTILATION • Icynene ProSeal™ fills any shaped cavity, and adheres to most construction materials, creating assemblies with very low air permeance. • Additional interior or exterior air infiltration protection is subject to applicable codes. • All buildings insulated and air sealed with Icynene ProSeal™ must be designed to include adequate mechanical ventilation/ outdoor air supply for optimum IAQ (Indoor Air Quality). • For mechanical ventilation see ASHRAE Standard 62 – Ventilation for Acceptable Indoor Air Quality or any other acceptable good engineering practice. Icynene ProSeal™USA Technical Product Data The Evolution of Insulation WATER VAPOR PERMEANCE & ABSORPTION • Icynene ProSeal™ is a Class II vapor retarder, at 1½” thickness, which reduces the amount of moisture that can diffuse through the insulation. • Icynene ProSeal™ meets FEMA criteria for resisting water absorption. • It is resistant to moisture allowing it to be used below the base flooding elevation in flood prone areas. ENVIRONMENTAL AND HEALTH • Icynene ProSeal™ is California Department of Public Health EHLB v1.1-2010 Emissions Specification Section 01350 compliant for offices and classrooms. INSTALLATION • Icynene ProSeal™ is installed by a network of Licensed Dealers, trained in its installation. • Maximum thickness per pass is 3 inches for first pass only, then 2 inches maximum for additional passes. Wait until first layer cools before applying a second layer/lift over the initial layer/lift. • This product should not be installed within (3”) of heat emitting devices, (or as specified by Code) where the temperature is in excess of 180°F, in accordance with applicable codes. • It can be installed in hot, humid or freezing conditions. Minimum substrate temperature for application is 22°F (-6ºC). • Surface preparation is generally not necessary. • Within seconds, the foaming process is complete.

Icynene spray foam insulation products have an excellent health and safety record spanning more than 425,000 projects over more than 25 years. Nonetheless, safe handling practices during and immediately following installation are required to eliminate the possibility of health effects from exposure to isocyanates. Asthma, other lung problems, and irritation of the nose and throat can result from inhalation of isocyanates. Direct contact with the skin and eyes can result in irritation. Different individuals will react differently to the same exposures; some will be more sensitive than others. Everyone (other than Icynene-certified spray technicians) must vacate the job site, remaining completely out of the building or at least 50 feet away, while the spray is applied and for at least 2 hours* after spraying is completed to allow active ventilation of the job site and to ensure the foam chemicals are completely cured. No exceptions. Independent studies and third party toxicologist verification indicates that when the prescribed ventilation rates and periods are followed, Icynene spray foam insulation is safely cured. * For installations of low VOC products (Icynene Classic Max and Icynene ProSeal) in the United States only, re-occupancy of the job site is permitted after 2 hours provided that the rate of air exchange during spraying and for 2 hours thereafter equals or exceeds 40 Air Changes per Hour (ACH).

CLIENT ACKNOWLEDGEMENT STAY OUT OF PREMISES WHILE FOAM IS BEING SPRAYED AND FOR 2 HOURS* AFTER SPRAYING IS COMPLETE. *FOR APPLICATIONS OF LOW VOC ICYNENE CLASSIC MAX AND ICYNENE PROSEAL ONLY WITH MIN. 40ACH VENTILATION. LowVOC Icynene spray foam insulation products have an excellent health and safety record spanning more than 425,000 projects over more than 25 years. Nonetheless, safe handling practices during and immediately following installation are required to eliminate the possibility of health effects from exposure to isocyanates. Asthma, other lung problems, and irritation of the nose and throat can result from inhalation of isocyanates. Direct contact with the skin and eyes can result in irritation. Different individuals will react differently to the same exposures; some will be more sensitive than others. Severe asthma attacks have been reported in some sensitized workers exposed repeatedly to isocyanates while not wearing proper protective equipment. Some reports indicate a reaction and sensitization can occur following a single, sustained occupational exposure to isocyanates without proper protective equipment above the OSHA permissible exposure limit. But sensitization might not occur immediately in some individuals. Consistent use of personal proper protective equipment to prevent exposure during spraying and within the 1 hour**-period after spraying is completed is critical to eliminating the health hazard. Once sensitization has occurred, a worker might not be able work safely with spray foam insulation again. Sprayers, sprayer helpers, and anyone else present during spraying or within 1 hour** after spraying is complete: You must ventilate at 40ACH and must wear proper Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) at all times during spray, including full-body-coverage, chemical-protective clothing and a NIOSH-certified respirator with fresh air supply. While spraying and for 1 hour** after spraying is completed, no one must be allowed within 50 feet of the sprayed foam without wearing this type of PPE at all times. Adequate active, negative pressure ventilation (exhaust fans) of the job site must be in place during spray and for 2 hours** after spray is complete to allow for re-occupancy. For installations of low VOC products Icynene Classic Max and Icynene ProSeal in the United States only, re-entry of the job site is permitted after 1 hour** and re-occupancy of the job site is permitted after 2 hours** provided that ventilation rates are followed as recommended on this page. Independent studies and third party toxicologist verification indicates that when the prescribed ventilation rates and periods are followed, Icynene spray foam insulation is safely cured.
