Moisture Barrier Systems

Description:
The location of water entry is often difficult to see, and the damage to substrate and structural members beyond the exterior wall cladding frequently cannot be detected by visual inspection. A successful moisture barrier system will limit water infiltration into unwanted areas and allow drainage and drying of wetted building materials. SOURCE: Home Builder's Guide to Coastal Contruction FEMA 499: Technical Fact Sheet 9.
