Start anchoring Vetotherm EPS boards a minimum of 48 hours after sticking the boards to allow the adhesive to dry completely. Vetotherm AFA (anchors) should be mounted according to a diagram depending on the height of the building, the region, and the strength of the wind (refer to Saveto ETICS guide).
If Vetotherm EPS has a thickness exceeding 8 cm, firstly, you need to make a hole of 2 cm depth with a cutter and then, in this hole, drill an opening for the screw anchor. Then, after the mounting of the dowels, fill the hole with a polystyrene cap.
After the completion of the anchoring, cover the heads of the dowels with Saveto Vetotherm Flex to flush with the level of the boards.
