Meet drainage plane code requirements...
while spending less and getting
better protection
The Enviro-Dri® Weather-Resistant
Barrier System is a fully-adhered,
code-approved drainage plane
alternative that gives you a better
performing moisture barrier at a
lower installed cost!
By switching to the Enviro-Dri WRB System as your
code-accepted moisture barrier, you get the following
advantages over any types of wraps:
• Fully-adhered moisture protection: Unlike wraps, Enviro-Dri
is completely and permanently attached to your exterior
sheathing system. You get superior moisture barrier protection
for your entire wall.
• No moisture behind the membrane: Dimensional wraps
are not designed to stop water from getting to your walls.
The Enviro-Dri WRB prevents moisture from ever getting
to your walls and seeping into the wall cavities.
• No seams, tears, rips or holes: As a fluid-applied
membrane, the moisture barrier protection provided by the
Enviro-Dri WRB is continuous and permanent across the entire
exterior wall…including the seams between sheathing panels.
• Reduced air infiltration: Your home is more comfortable and
energy-effective, since the Enviro-Dri WRB is code-approved
as an air barrier as well. That allows you to eliminate your AIP
from your construction cycle…saving you even more cash!
Dimensional house wraps are NOT your only option to meet the
drainage-plane code requirements!
