GIB Weatherline® Rigid Air Barrier Systems are intended for use exclusively with drained and vented cavity cladding systems (used in place of a flexible wall underlay). They function as an air barrier and as an effective secondary line of defence against water penetration into the building interior.

A rigid air barrier is an extremely effective way of managing the air pressure that acts on the exterior of a building – the higher pressure external air has the potential to drive external moisture through the exterior weather envelope (cladding) and into the wall assembly or lower pressure building interior. By installing a rigid air barrier to moderate this pressure, the external driving force is reduced and any potential moisture penetration is mitigated.

In this webinar we will provide training for GIB Weatherline® Rigid Air Barrier Systems as they relate to the build-up of the exterior envelope.
