There are hundreds of details that go into every project that all stem off a core water-moisture- air barrier. We are continually surprised to see so many other contractors cut so many corners and alleviated so many details, but what truly surprises us the most is their lack to install a true water-moisture-air barrier. We can only suspect they decide to go with the cheap paper like products because their lack of knowledge or their want to pocket more money. Ai Restoration installs a true water-moisture-air barrier on every one of our projects along with the hundreds of details that protect your home.
Although there are many steps and details the “core” part of our system is a self-adhered membrane, Delta Vent SA from Dorken Systems, Inc. This monolithic membrane is installed over the entire exterior of the home giving a water-moisture-air barrier that outperforms almost everything on the market today. Our unique membrane keeps water out, allows for drying and is an air barrier. What does this mean?
- Keeps water out…Delta Vent SA incorporates a middle layer that is a watertight polymeric highly vapor permeable layer. We install Delta Vent SA directly over the exterior sheathing to guarantee no water can get into the covered sheathing.
- Allows for drying…Delta Vent SA is highly vapor permeable allowing moisture within the building envelope to escape through the membrane via diffusion.
- Is an air barrier…Delta Vent SA full adhesion maximizes air tightness. Along with our trained installation yields an air barrier on the exterior which makes your home highly energy efficient.
Ai Restoration does not offer a good, better, or best system. We only do the best system. Yes, this is a little more expensive, but doing it cheap means you will just have to redo it in the future. Paying for something twice is a lot more expensive than paying a little more the first time.
