What is a rain screen siding system?
Typical rain screen siding layout
Stated simply a rain screen siding system is like putting a rain coat on over a sweater for your home or building:
-
The plywood or OSB structural panels on your outside wall are wrapped with a house wrap or other building paper in the same way as standard construction.
-
Instead of fastening your siding directly to the sheathing, however, you leave an air space. This air space acts as a buffer against the elements.
-
The wood siding is then installed over this buffer space.
