A Healthier Interior
Starts At The Skin.
LUCKILY, TODAY'S BEST PROTECTION IS ALSO THE MOST COST-EFFECTIVE.
Brick exterior walls are a building's first defense. When moisture becomes trapped in wall-cavities it cannot only shorten the building's life, it can also foster hazardous mold-growth. That's why the most prudent builders seek maximum reliability in their wall-drainage systems.
With new TOTALFLASH, all of today's most effective drainage methods arrive ingeniously pre-assembled onto handy, 5-1/2-foot panels of 40-mil flexible flashing. So it's TOTAL protection.
Yet it installs in a FLASH, saving at least 50% in Time-&-Labor costs versus installing the usual array of separate components! (And since it's an "all-in-one" product, there's no costly downtime on the job-site, waiting for multiple deliveries.) It all adds up to a sweeter bottom line.
Supreme wall-drainage. Quicker completion. Serious savings.
It's the "green" technology that even your cost-accountant will love!
