E2zero® House Wrap
The E2ZERO Waterproof and Windtight House Wrap is a water resistive barrier that protects the building enclosure against liquid bulk water intrusion.
Function
The E2ZERO Waterproof and Windtight House Wrap is a water resistive barrier that protects the building enclosure against liquid bulk water intrusion.
With a rating of 164 perms, the E2ZERO House Wrap membrane allows trapped interior moisture to escape, reducing the risk of mold, mildew and rot.
Basis Weight ~ 5,29 oz/yd2

- Allows trapped interior moisture to escape, reducing the risk of mold, mildew and rot.
- Durable and light-weight.
- Sustainable and
- Lightweight and easy to install.
- Anti-glare surface.
- Assembled together with E2zero Exterior Tapes to form a continuous weather barrier system.
- Contributes to LEED points.
Data Sheet
Application
The E2ZERO House Wrap membrane is directly applied on the substructure (OSB, plywood, etc.) and is mechanically fastened with staples (tacker) or wide-head nails. Membrane overlap must be approx. 4´´ (100 mm). All overlaps and joints to adjacent structural components must be sealed with suitable E2zero tapes to guarantee a seamless weather barrier. For window flashing also use E2zero tapes. Pipes or cables penetrating the membrane should be sealed with E2zero products.
Note: Always confirm compliance with local building requirements prior to installation.
