Step-by-Step Instructions

Step 1: Measure the Area

Use a ruler or measuring tape to measure the length of the gaps around doors or windows where you want to apply the draught excluder.

Step 2: Cut the Strip to Size

Using scissors or a utility knife, cut the EPDM rubber strip to the desired length based on your measurements.

Step 3: Clean the Surface

Use a cleaning cloth to thoroughly clean the surface where the draught excluder will be applied. Ensure that the area is dry and free from dust, dirt, and grease for better adhesion.

Step 4: Apply the Strip

1. Peel off a small section of the adhesive backing from the strip.
2. Carefully align the strip with the measured area.
3. Press firmly to ensure the strip sticks well to the surface.
4. Continue to peel off the backing and press the strip into place gradually along the entire length.

Step 5: Check the Seal

Inspect the installed strip to ensure it is firmly attached and there are no gaps. Adjust if necessary for a tight seal.

Tips for Best Results

• Ensure the surface is completely dry before applying the strip.
• Apply the strip in temperatures above 10°C for optimal adhesion.
• Avoid stretching the strip during application to maintain its shape and effectiveness.
