A weather-resistant barrier (or WRB) is intended to protect the interior living space of your home by preventing liquid moisture from penetrating your sheathing system, while allowing for moisture vapor to pass to the outside. In addition, a properly installed WRB system will also reduce air leaks.
Typically, your builder would use a woven polyester housewrap to serve as the WRB. Housewraps, however, have limitations and weaknesses which, even when properly installed, minimize the effectiveness of the protection they actually provide to your new home.
With Enviro-Dri's liquid applied system, the membrane is completely and permanently adhered directly to the sheathing system, eliminating blow-offs in high winds. Liquid moisture cannot seep or flow between Enviro-Dri and sheathing, unlike traditional mechanically-fastened housewraps. No need to worry about rips and tears caused by sub-trades.
The permeable membrane allows for the passage of moisture vapor to enable drying to the outside or inside- the foundation for a better building envelope.
