I. Typical 2x6 Wall

Energy Efficiency

Is able to meet minimal energy code. Takes on thermal bridging through studs.

Install Complexity

• Simple, straightforward install.

• Only two times around the house. Plywood, then WRB.

When

Used from new construction, to additions, to retrofit applications.

Moisture Management

System has a harder time releasing moisture to the exterior with the siding pressed up against it.

II. V.O.A.T. Wall

Energy Efficiency

Exceeds the energy code. Continuous insulation helps cancel the thermal bridging through the studs. Airtight.

Install Complexity

• Very complex - lots of components. All the newest building concepts combined into one idea.

• Six times around the house. Plywood, WRB, ThermalBuck, Exterior ROCKWOOL insulation(x2), and 5/8” strapping.

When

Best used with new construction and additions.

Moisture Management

Extremely effective.

III. 3D WRB With Polyiso FoamEnergy EfficiencyExceeds the energy code. Continuous insulation helps cancel thermal bridging.

Install Complexity• Four times around the house. Plywood, WRB, exterior insulation, and

½” strapping.

• Medium complexity. Window stays on the same plane as your sheathing while adding exterior extension jambs. WRB is mechanically fastened and foam is installed. Does not have a very effective air barrier.

WhenThis can be used with any reside job, new construction, or additions.

Moisture ManagementWith the gapping of the 3D WRB gives it increased drying potential by having the drainage plane behind the foam insulation.

IV. ZIP System with ROCKWOOL and ThermalBuckEnergy Efficiency

Exceeds the energy code. Continuous insulation helps cancel the thermal bridging. Airtight WRB

Install Complexity

• Four times around building. ZIP System, ThermalBuck, exterior ROCKWOOL insulation, and ½” strapping.

• Medium/high. With use of insulated buck the window is able to stay on same plane as the siding. Drainable insulation. Air space.

When

Best used for new construction, additions, or full reside jobs.

Moisture Management

Extremely effective.

V. Tyvek With StrappingEnergy Efficiency

Can meet minimal energy code. Takes on thermal bridging through studs. Very similar to the typical wall.

Install Complexity

• Three times around the building. Sheathing, mechanically fastened 2D WRB, and ½” strapping.

• Straightforward install with added exterior extension jambs for windows.

When

This can be used with any reside job, new construction, or additions.

Moisture Management

Due to the exterior air space it provides great outward drying potential.
