• Moisture control and moisture vapor control are critical
elements of proper housing design. Check your local building
codes for application procedures for handling moisture and
watervapor in your area.
When using wet blown cellulose insulation, the insulation
must not be in direct contact with the siding and it must be
allowed to dry a minimum of 24 hours or longerif specified by
the insulation manufacturer.
As with all wood products, do not applyengineered wood
siding to a structure having excessive moisture conditions such
as drying concrete, plaster orwet blown cellulose insulation. If
such conditions exist, the building should be well ventilated to
allow it to dry prior to the application of the siding.
Siding must not be applied to green or crooked structural
framing members. Do not apply siding over rain -soaked or
buckled sheathing materials.
• Gutters are recommended for control of roof water runoff.
SECONDARY WATER-RESISTANT BARRIER
A properly installed breathable water -resistive barrier is
required behind the siding. Consult your local building code
for details.
LP will assume no responsibility for water penetration.
G AP
Seal all gaps with a high -quality, non -hardening, paintable
sealant. Follow the sealant manufacturer's instructions for
application.
Use a high -quality exterior sealant meeting the ASTM C920,
minimum Class 25 sealant.
DOWS, DOORS& OPENINGS
All openings must be properly sealed or flashed in a manner that
prevents moisture intrusion or buildup. Several examples that
accomplish this are shown on the following pages.
