Product Overview
DrainStrip™ serves two primary functions:
Rainscreen Bulk Water Furring Strip: Helps manage moisture by creating an air space between cladding and WRB (Weather-Resistant Barrier)/sheathing.
Air Ventilation Strip: Provides ventilation for roof assemblies and building envelopes, allowing air movement to reduce moisture buildup and dissipate heat behind cladding materials.
KEY FEATURES
Sizes Available:
Widths: 1.5", 2", or 3"
Lengths: 48", 84", or 96" (custom sizes are available)
Can be installed with spacing of 16” on-center (oc) or 24” oc.
Drainage Efficiency:
Exceeds ASTM E2273 standards with a 96% drainage efficiency rating, ensuring effective moisture control.
Applications:
Suitable for use in both residential and commercial structures.
Supports vertical and horizontal airflow, which aids in controlling moisture and maintaining a healthy building environment.
BENEFITS
Moisture Control: Provides space for moisture to drain while allowing for airflow.
Enhanced Ventilation: Improves air circulation within the building envelope, which can help reduce the risk of moisture-related issues and improve energy efficiency by dissipating heat.
Customizable: Available in various sizes, with custom dimensions possible to fit specific project needs.
