Using AF 100 aluminum foil tape is easy. First, make sure the surface where you'll apply the tape is clean, dry, and free of grease or oil. This will help the tape stick better. Then, simply unroll the tape and place it on the joint, connection, or seam you want to seal. Press it firmly to ensure an airtight bond. When it comes to storage, keep the tape in its original packaging. Find a cool and dry area away from direct sunlight. It's best to use the tape within 12 months of the shipment date to maintain its quality. Remember, the energy savings claim is an estimate, and your actual savings will depend on factors like how well you seal and insulate your home, the size and age of your home, local energy costs, and the regional climate.
