DrainStrip

DrainStrip is designed to enhance building performance by addressing key challenges related to moisture and ventilation, making it a valuable component for sustainable construction projects. DrainStrip™, a high-strength furring strip designed to improve building envelope ventilation and moisture management.

Exceeds ASTM E2273 standards with a 96% drainage efficiency rating, ensuring effective moisture control.

Code Compliant in the United States and Canada.

Patent Pending

  • 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.

  • Sold with a specific number of pieces per pallet, ensuring easy transportation and handling.

Product Overview

DrainStrip™ serves two primary functions:

  1. Rainscreen Bulk Water Furring Strip: Helps manage moisture by creating an air space between cladding and WRB (Weather-Resistant Barrier)/sheathing.

  2. 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.
