Air Barrier Diagram

Waterproofing

Applied to the exterior of foundation walls to prevent liquid water from entering the building structure.

Vapor Barriers

Protects the waterproofing membrane and facilitates the flow of water down to the foundation drainage system.

Primers

Preparation coat used to ensure strong adhesion between the substrate and the air/vapor barrier membranes.

Cure / Seal / Densifier

Materials used to control the rate at which water vapor moves through the building envelope.

Flashing

Flexible membrane used to seal window perimeters and other transitions to ensure a continuous air/water barrier.

Air Barriers

Systems that control air leakage into and out of the building, critical for energy performance and moisture control.
