DuPontTM Tyvek® Housewrap is one-layer breathing diffusive membranes for walls.
Thanks to the unique manufacturing technology of high level the product of exclusive properties is received that is completely impermeable to wind and water, but has excellent characteristics of vapor permeability. Tyvek® products have an exceptionally thick functional layer, which allows the product becoming durable and lasting.
The membrane is laid directly on the heating material without leaving any additional gap for air.
We recommend:
To glue the membrane‘s junctions with Tyvek adhesive tape. Only the solid construction will be 100 % impermeable to wind and water.
