ZIP System Wall & Roof Sheathing

GA energy codes are quickly changing, and the requirement to conduct blower door testing will take effect before we know it. ZIP System® wall sheathing from Huber Engineered Woods is one product that can make your life much easier with these new codes. By simply taping the ZIP System panel seams with ZIP System tape, ZIP System wall sheathing effectively seals the wall system, decreasing unwanted air leakage into and out of the home.

Note that the United States Department of Energy reports that over 30 – 40 percent of the cost of heating and cooling a home is lost to uncontrolled air leakage. To find a solution, it is not enough to simply add insulation to achieve a higher level of energy-efficiency. The revolutionary science behind ZIP System sheathing, and ZIP System tape, is the solution to this problem. By sealing panel joints and gaps, and thereby reducing air leakage, ZIP System wall sheathing protects the effective R-value of insulation so that builders and homeowners can:  

• Lower the rate of heat flow
• Use less energy to heat or cool a home
• Increase overall energy efficiency
• Save on heating and cooling costs
