YBS Breathe-R Ultra
Breathable Membrane & Insulating Layer for Pitched Roofs.
Why install a standard breather membrane when you can insulate at the same time?
The average UK house loses 25% of its heat through its roof. Current Building Regulations recommend a suitable membrane should be used over the rafters. This is to ensure that the roof is waterproof and breathable. Standard breather membranes offer zero thermal performance.
When roofing your project, why not use Breathe-R Ultra, incorporating the properties of a breather membrane with the extra benefits of thermal performance.
The Breathe-R range is a quick and easy to install solution for your roofing membrane needs, with a high thermal performance.
