Product Details
DensElement® Barrier System frees you from manually applying a WRB/AB over sheathing on your jobsite or a pre-fabrication facility. Resisting normal weather conditions and help prevent uncontrolled air movement when combined with DensDefy® Accessories—it eliminates an entire step in the installation process and helps keep your project on schedule. Because it can be installed in wet weather, DensElement® Barrier System helps to accelerate schedules, allows for faster dry-in of the structure and improves your structure’s resistance to normal moisture conditions and uncontrolled air movement. It also helps to relieve the quality control challenges that are posed by building wraps and both self-adhered and fluid-applied membranes.
