Rainscreen
Moisture penetration is a prevalent issue in these wall systems and creates a range of problems from cracking to complete failure of the wall. Without a rainscreen, moisture can intrude past the outer surface of the wall and become trapped in the system, creating issues with rusting and mold growth that can structurally compromise the system. By using ClarkDietrich E-Screen, the water inside the wall is drained away more efficiently and the increased ventilation properties allows the system to dry out more effectively.
