An exceptional level of airtightness is a critical first step towards achieving net zero ready performance and ensuring long term performance and durability of the building envelope.  Simply adding more insulation to meet new stringent energy efficiency Codes without controlling air leakage could lead to unintended consequences and premature building enclosure failures.  

This webinar will cover the simple details of Owens Corning’s innovative CodeBord exterior air barrier system that helps builders achieve exceptional levels of airtightness (below 1.5 ACH at the framing stage) and provide maximum occupant comfort.

Jennifer Weatherston from Reid’s Heritage Homes will share her teams experience and journey in implementing the CodeBord exterior air barrier system in their construction.  Jennifer will outline the advantages and provide key take-aways required to successfully move the air barrier to the exterior.

The CodeBord exterior air barrier system provides:
•    Exceptional levels of airtightness (less than 1.5 ACH at the framing stage)
•    Reduced construction costs
•    Reduced call backs
•    Opportunity for replacing interior polyethylene vapor barrier with vapor barrier paint
•    Opportunity to achieve the required heat, air and moisture control layers all from the exterior with one product!
