Frequently Asked Questions

A rainscreen significantly improves moisture management, enhances thermal performance, and increases the overall durability of your building’s facade.

Rainscreens typically require minimal repairs if properly designed and installed. However, regular inspections are recommended to catch early signs of wear or system failure.

Yes, a rainscreen system generally must be structurally engineered, particularly for commercial buildings, high-rises, and projects located in areas with high wind, seismic activity, or heavy snow loads.

Yes, waterproofing must be installed behind the rainscreen before the cladding system is attached. The rainscreen itself is not the waterproof barrier; it is a ventilated system designed to protect the waterproofing and assist with drainage and drying.
