HOUSE WRAPS PRIMUS
Primus house wrap is a high-quality, low-cost solution for preventing air leakage, controlling drafts, improving indoor air quality, and protecting wall systems from water and moisture damage.
The average household creates three to six gallons of moisture every day from cooking, showering, even breathing! This vapor seeps into the wall cavity and needs to escape before it becomes condensation. The micro-perforations in the durable PP material of the Primus House wrap allows the moisture as a vapor to escape through the wall cavity. The wall cavity remains dry and free from the damage caused by water.
Primus House wrap is the windbreaker for a building. It resists air infiltration and protects against drafts. Primus house wrap improves the performance of the insulation system and increases the energy efficiency of the heating system.
Water resistance and air resistance are the most crucial performance requirements of a weather barrier system. As a secondary water resistant barrier, Primus House wrap protects the outer wall structure from water damage. Primus House wrap far surpassed the ICC-ES AC38 test requirement of ten minutes when tested according to ASTM D 779.
Ultraviolet inhibitors in Home Guard House wrap make it UV Resistant for 6 months. Yet it is lightweight for fast easy installation, and translucent allowing for a clear view of the framing member underneath.
