What is Rainscreen and why is it important?

A rainscreen system is designed to protect buildings from moisture and improve durability. It creates a gap between the exterior cladding and the inner wall, allowing for airflow and drainage. This prevents water from penetrating the inner wall, reducing the risk of mold, mildew, and structural damage. By using AL13’s innovative moisture management solutions, buildings are kept dry, secure, and durable, providing unparalleled peace of mind.

Cutting-Edge Cladding for Tomorrow’s Buildings

Traditional wood battens are difficult to install, aren’t very durable, and end up being very expensive – if you can find a qualified craftsman to do the job. Battens are a great architectural solution for a number of projects, so instead of being limited by the current lack of options, we created our own. AL13 Batten System is made from durable aluminum extrusions finished in your choice of solid or woodgrain and comes with a standard 15-year finish warranty. Our proprietary bracket system makes installation a breeze, ensuring a flawless alignment and spacing of each batten.

FAQ

Most frequent questions and answers

A rain screen is a system designed to protect the building envelope from moisture infiltration. It consists of an outer cladding layer, a ventilated air gap, and a weather-resistant barrier. The outer cladding deflects rain, while the air gap allows for ventilation and drainage, preventing moisture buildup and ensuring that any water that penetrates the outer layer can safely evaporate or drain away.

Moisture management is crucial because excess moisture can lead to various problems, including mold growth, wood rot, and structural damage. Effective moisture management systems, like rain screens, help prevent these issues by controlling the amount of moisture that can enter and remain in the building envelope, ensuring the longevity and integrity of the structure.

A rain screen enhances the durability of a building by providing an additional layer of protection against moisture infiltration. By allowing water that penetrates the outer cladding to drain and evaporate, it prevents moisture from reaching the inner structural components. This reduces the risk of issues such as mold growth, wood rot, and corrosion, thereby extending the lifespan of the building materials and maintaining the structural integrity of the building over time.

Yes, rain screens are compatible with a wide range of cladding materials, including wood, metal, fiber cement, and composite panels. The key is to ensure that the cladding material and the rain screen system are properly integrated to provide effective moisture management and ventilation. It’s essential to follow manufacturer guidelines and industry best practices to ensure compatibility and performance.
