Mortairvent Rain Screen Drainage Mat

Mortairvent Rain Screen Drainage Mat is a drainage and ventilation system specifically designed for use with most exterior siding materials. Mortairvent creates a pressure neutralized airspace between the structural envelope and the exterior cladding of a wall structure. This facilitates the drainage, as well as the ventilation of moisture from the wall system, which is beneficial to the life of the structure. Mortairvent is simple to install and is an easier more cost effective option compared to traditional methods. Bundle in one individual roll the Mortairvent provides 200 SqFt of coverage.

Why You Should Implement A Rain Screen:
Rain screens have become absolute necessity and without implementing them you can have negative ramifications. 90% of all wall failures are due to moisture related issues, and since many wall claddings are not water tight, managing moisture has become a critical design. Without installing a rain screen you could experience corrosion of building materials, staining, cracking, interior deterioration of finishes, poor indoor air quality, increased maintenance, and decreased life-span of building.
