System® Roof & Wall Sheathing Installation Manual
System® Sheathing Installation on Roofs
Ova rview: ZIP System Roof & Wall sheathing is composed of ZIP System panels and ZIP System. seam sealing tape. ZIP System® Roof & Wall Sheathing
pari Is 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 t e 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
seclions of the roof and working down will minimize foot traffic on 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.
ep 1.
Ensure that the panel surface is dry and clean of any nails, 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 the 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.)

-
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

ZIP System`"" Tape Installation - Roof Panel Seams
App 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
sea the seams of ZIP System panels. Ensure that the panel surfaces are dry and free of any nails, sawdust and other debris, or protrusions. Avoid stepping
on 1. pe in high temperature environments. ZIP System tape is a contact tape that requires pressure for an adequate seal.
- Apply ZIP System tape to every vertical and horizontal panel seam. 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 roof and working down will minimize foot traffic on the tape.
- Ensure that the tape is centered over the seam within +/-1/2" to provide
adequate coverage and to ensure that wrinkles in the tape are minimized.
- Ensure that tape lengths are continuous across the 8' horizontal edge
of the panels. If splices are unavoidable, create an overlapping splice
of at least 3". Apply moderate pressure onto the surface of 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.
Sfep 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 designed 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.
- It is important to pay extra attention to valley taping as 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.

Mould Windows (continued)
ZIP System tape may be used as pan flashing if
installed in accordance with brick mould window
installation details posted on zipsystem.com.
Other adhesive -based flashing tapes (must meet
ICC-ES Acceptance Criteria for Flashing Materials
(AC148)) may be used as pan flashing if installed
per ASTM 2112-07. Apply the flashing to cover
the bottom of the opening, overhanging onto the
sheathing by at least 2" and extending a minimum
of 6" up each jamb.
For vertical jambs, cut ZIP System tape or another
adhesive -backed flashing tape (must meet [CC -
ES Acceptance Criteria for Flashing Materials
(AC148)) and apply to each of the window jambs.
Ensure that they cover the entire inside of the rough
opening as well as overlap onto the sheathing by i
at least 2". Flashing shall also extend above the
rough opening, such that it will project 1" beyond
the exterior trim of the window.
Once the tape is in place, use the tape gun or roller
to seal the flashing to the sheathing.
Apply sealant to jambs and header allowing for
drainage at the sill in accordance with window
manufacturer's installation instructions. When
using ZIP System tape, use a butyl, polyurethane
or 100% silicone sealant. Do not use latex or
other water -based sealants with ZIP System
tape. When using another flashing tape, follow the
flashing manufac-turer's recommendations in
selecting a sealant compatible with that flashing.
Install and level window per manufacturer's
installation instructions.
7: Cut a piece of rigid head flashing so that when
installed, it is flush with the edges of the exterior
moulding of the window. Apply a bead of sealant
to the back and bottom surface of the rigid
head flashing. Use sealant recommended by the
flashing manufacturer.
8. Secure the rigid head flashing to ZIP System
wall sheathing.
9. Cut a length of ZIPSystem tape or another
adhesive -backed flashing tape (must meet ICC-ES
Acceptance Criteria for Flashing Materials (AC148))
and apply to the rigid head flashing, ensuring
that the adhesive -backed flashing overlaps the
jamb (lashings.
Once the tape is in place, use the tape gun or roller
to seal the flashing to the sheathing.
10. From the interior, apply low-pressure polyurethane
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
