ZIP.Systemm Roof & Wall Sheathing Installation Manual
CON
ZIP System® Sheathing Installation on
Overview: ZIP System Roof & Wall sheathing is composed of ZIP System panels and ZIP System seam sealing tape. ZIP System° Roof & Wall Sheathing
panels should be fully installed before the seam sealing tape Is applied. In general, the ZIP System roof sheathing panels should be Installed from the lowest point
on the roof to the highest It is at the discretion of the installer whether to apply tape from the top down or from the bottom up. However, working from the highest
sections of the mot and working down will minimize foot traffic Ikon the tape. The following installation steps are presented as guidelines and a general outline of
the installation process. These are manufacturer Installation recommendations —please visit zipsystem.com for a library of flashing and installation details. You are
fully and solely responsible for all safety requirements. Good construction and safety practices should be followed at all times.
I -
Step 1.
Ensure that the panel surface is dry and clean of any nail's, sawdust, or
other debris or protrusions prior to installing or walking on the panels.
After ensuring compliance with all OSHA and local code safety
guidelines, install ZIP System sheathing panels with Ithe moisture
barrier surface facing outside. The long edge (8') should be oriented
perpendicular to the framing members, and panels should be installed
with the 4' edge seams staggered a minimum of 24'.
1/8" spacing between square edges of all adjacent panels Is recommended,
In accordance with industry standards for wood sheathing. (Tongue &
Groove panels are designed to self -space and do not require manual
spacing on the 8' edges.)
I
Step 2. 1
Ensure that ZIP System panels span at least three framing members and
a framing member supports the entire 4' edge of the panels.
Fasten the ZIP System Roof & Wall sheathing panel to the framing
members with code approved fasteners spaced at the appropriate
edge and intermediate spacing. It is the responsibility of the general
contractor to verify proper fastener type and spacing prior to' installation.
Apply the fasteners 3/8' from the panel ends and comers.
An ideal installation would be where fastener heads are flush with the
panel surface. However, due to variations in materials and limitations
on equipment, this may be difficult to achieve in some situations. It
is not required to tape over overdriven fasteners unless the fastener
head creates a hole through the entire panel thickness. Please see
the technical tip, "Overdriven Fasteners in ZIP System Roof and Wall
Sheathing," for more information.
Step 3.
Install temporary toe boards as necessary when applying the ZIP System
sheathing panels up the slope of the roof planes.

ZIP System' Tape Installation - Roof Panel Seams
Apply ZIP System tape after all ZIP System Roof & Wall sheathing
panels are fully fastened to roof -framing members. Only ZIP System tape should be used to
seal the seams of ZIP System panels. Ensure that the panel s,�rfaces
are dry and free of any nails, sawdust and other debris, or protrusions. Avoid stepping
on tape in high temperature environments. ZIP System tape is
a contact tape that requires pressure for an adequate seal.
Step 1,
- Apply ZIP System tape to every vertical and horizontal pa
el seam. It is
at the discretion of the installer whether to apply tape from
or from the bottom up. However, working from the highest
the top dawn
sections of
r
the roof and working down will minimize loot traffic on the
tape.
- Ensure that the tape Is centered over the seam within +/-112"
to provide
adequate coverage and to ensure that wrinkles in the tape Ire
minimized.
Ensure that tape lengths are continuous across the Who
'zontal edge
of the panels. If splices are unavoidable, create an overlapping
splice
of at least X. Apply moderate pressure onto the surface
011 the tape to
ensure a secure bond between the panel and the tape.
- Use ZIP System tape gun or tape roller to apply pressure
to the tape
and smooth out any wrinkles.
Take special care to remove any voids and/or trapped
air at splice
areas and T-joints. -
Step 2.
For valley areas of framing, we recommend you use 6' wide
ZIP System
tape. This tape is wider than panel seam tape and is designe
to give you
optimal protection in valley areas.
- Starting from the bottom and working your way up, apply one
continuous
piece of 6' tape so that the center of the tape is over the
valley seam.
Use the tape gun or tape roller to apply pressure to the tape
to ensure
proper contact with the panel and to eliminate any wrinkles
that might
have occurred in the tape. Take special care to seat tape
completely
_
into the valley.
Note:
- It is important to pay extra attention to valley taping
is water is
directed toward the valleys during rain events.
- Self -adhering ice and water barriers may be required by
code. ZIP
System tape is not. considered a replacement for self -adhering
Ice
and water barriers. Therefore, when self -adhering Ice
and water
barriers are required, they should be installed in addition
to ZIP
System tape.

System tape.
Step 4.
- To provide temporary weather protection to roof/wall
intersections
of dormers or other wood -sheathed projections, apply 2'I
of the tape
width up the vertical projection from where it intersects
frith the roof.
The remaining tape width can be adhered to the ZIP
System roof
sheathing panels.
AlAk
- Use the tape gun or tape roller to apply pressure to the tape
and smooth
out any wrinkles.
Step 5.
- Install ZIP System tape over hips and ridges by centering the tape over
the peak seam. Apply tape in sufficient length to completely extend the
length of the hip or ridge.
- Starting from the lowest point of the hip and working up, press tape Into
place keeping tape centered over the hip. Apply moderate pressure
onto the surface of the tape to ensure a secure bond between the panel
and the tape.
- Cut ridge tape as required for ventilation prior to installing ridge vent.

foam (for windows) between the rough opening and
the window frame. (Caulk sealant compatible with
the sill flashing may be used at the sill if the opening
between the sill flashing and window is too narrow
to allow the use of low-pressure polyurethane foam.) '

or polyurethane sealants are acceptable. Do not ):
use latex or other water -based sealants with ZIP
System tape. If using another flashing tape, follow
