DECISION SHEET
When to choose W381
Best suited to
Wet internal areas requiring a compact AQUAPANEL solution with one cement board per side.
Compare first with
W382 adds a second board per side for a more robust build-up; W386 uses a double frame for services and permanently humid areas.
Critical site checks
- ✓Waterproof every face directly exposed to water and retain the barrier with its required overlaps.
- ✓Choose one AQUAPANEL joint method: PU adhesive or joint mortar with 100 mm mesh tape.
- ✓Use acoustic seal and fix perimeter profiles at no more than 600 mm centres and at least three points.
