MemBrain™: The SMART Vapor Retarder
Basic Use: CertainTeed MemBrain™ SMART Vapor Retarder is a vapor retarder sheeting intended for use with unfaced, vapor permeable mass insulation (fiber glass and mineral wool) in wall and ceiling cavities.
Benefits: MemBrain™ SMART Vapor Retarder is a |
polyamide film that changes its permeability with the ambient humidity condition. The product’s permeance is 1 perm or less when tested in accordance with ASTM E 96, dry cup method, and increases to greater than 10 perms using the wet cup method. This process allows closed building envelope systems to increase their drying potential with seasonal climatic changes. With a high resistance to water vapor in winter, MemBrain reacts to relative humidity by altering pore size, allowing water vapor to pass through it. When conditions change and relative humidity increases above 60%, the pores in the material expand and its permeability increases. This transformation permits drying to occur, in either direction, through the process of vapor diffusion. Thus, its lowered resistance value supports the drying process, therefore decreasing moisture accumulation within the construction and potential moisture damage. This product can be used in place of traditional vapor retarders with unfaced fiber glass insulation to provide an insulation system that is ideal in some of the more severe climate condition areas in terms of both temperature and humidity. |

SpeedyR™ Tabless Batts
Basic Use: This product is intended for use in either residential or commercial construction as thermal and acoustical insulation in walls. These batts are designed for use in standard width wood framed construction where a vapor retarder is needed. The batts have kraft-paper facing without flanges and can be friction-fit between wall studs for non-exposed applications. |
Benefits: Installing SpeedyR™ Tabless Batts is an easy, cost effective method to help conserve energy in the residential and commercial new construction, remodeling, and reinsulation markets. In addition to its thermal properties, this product also provides excellent acoustical performance. Installing this product will save time and improve productivity by reducing field labor as stapling is not required because the fiber glass fills the entire cavity. SpeedyR Tabless Batts will not settle or sag. |

DryRightTM Fiber Glass Insulation
Moisture that becomes trapped in wall cavities can lead to mold growth and related problems – including structural damage, callbacks and liability issues. DryRightTM insulation from CertainTeed helps reduce the presence of one of the key components for mold and mildew growth – moisture – by allowing excess moisture in wall cavities to escape. |
DryRight, available in both batts and rolls, utilizes a unique technology that helps to control excess moisture. When installed properly, DryRight helps wall cavities to stay dry and mold-free – helping you to avoid unhappy customers. |

EZR Fiber Glass Building Insulation
Basic Use: EZR fiber glass building insulation is intended for use in either residential or commercial construction as thermal and acoustical insulation in walls. These perforated mini-rolls are designed for use in standard width wood framed construction where a vapor retarder is needed. The rolls have a tabless kraft facing on one side and a non-woven fabric on the other. |
Benefits: EZR is an enhanced fiber glass insulation product that is easier to use than traditional kraft-faced products. These perforated mini-rolls are ¼” wider providing for a friction-fit staple free installation, saving time and money. Due to the non-woven facing, this product cuts easier, and produces less dust and itch during installation, making it easier to work with. In addition to these features, the rolls are perforated every 93″ so they can easily be installed as a batt. |

Gutters http://www.seamlessgutters.com/ |
What are Seamless Gutters? |
Continuous Rain Guttering, Also known as Seamless Guttering “Seamless Gutters” is nationally recognized as the most popular form of guttering. Seventy-five percent of all guttering installed throughout the nation is continuous. Its popularity is easily understood because… |
|
The Purpose of Guttering Systems… |
The purpose of guttering systems is to collect water (rain) from the roofing area and disperse the water away from your home. Properly configured downspouts (leaders, drain pipes) are very essential. A faulty guttering system can contribute to damage to Soffit & Fascia, Shingles, Building Foundations, Driveways, Walkways, Landscaping. Guttering systems require maintenance to insure protection for your home. Make sure your gutters are free from debris, leaves, granules from shingles, birds nest. The extreme exposure to nature can also cause sealant failures. Snow & Ice can loosen fasteners and should be repaired immediately to prevent costly repairs. (We always recommend a professional for maintaining your Guttering System) |
Types of Seamless Gutters… |
There are many different gutter materials to choose from, including steel, aluminum, vinyl, copper. Many types of gutters (steel and vinyl in particular) are sold in 10’ lengths and require dozens of seams fastened with slip fittings, each one is a weak spot and a potential leak site. Another alternative well worth considering is the installation of seamless aluminum gutters. Seamless gutters must be fabricated on-site by a professional contractor. The term seamless gutters can be confusing because there are seams in the system. The seams are only at the corners and downspout outlets.These joints are fastened more securely and sealed for stability and leak resistance. The Seamless Gutter itself is continuous which makes them both strong and visually more appealing. |
