Breathable polypropylene nonwoven coated on one side
AIR-GARD HP housewrap is a non-woven polypropylene fabric designed for optimal breathability and for greater permeability. Unlike other housewrap options that are micro-perforated, moisture and air regulation is achieved through the nonwoven technology with a breathable coating.
Air-Gard HP is a high-performance housewrap designed for optimal breathability, allowing moisture to escape while keeping water out. It features a higher perm rating than other products in the Air-Gard portfolio, with "HP" denoting its "high perm" capability. The underlayment also offers a strong strength-to-weight ratio, making it easy to install, and helps reduce air movement within wall cavities and insulation, contributing to better energy efficiency and indoor comfort.
