What is a weather barrier?

A weather barrier is a protective layer between your home’s sheathing and exterior siding. The purpose of a weather barrier is to provide proper air ventilation and to resist moisture intrusion. It also helps to prevent water damage, mildew and mold growth, and contributes to your home’s energy efficiency.

The weather barrier is a crucial piece to your home’s moisture management system. Bellwether guarantees that our siding installations include this expertly designed moisture management system. Regardless of your siding type, Bellwether-installed siding creates a barrier between the living spaces of your home and the outside environment, to keep your home comfortable and dry.

What is the best choice for a weather barrier?

As an Elite Preferred James Hardie contractor, we believe in the superior quality of James Hardie products, such as HardieWrap weather barrier. Like all weather barrier options, HardieWrap is secured over the sheathing beneath the siding in order to reduce water and air infiltration, preventing against moisture intrusion and related consequences, such as mildew and water damage.

Like all James Hardie quality products, HardieWrap is engineered for climate, so we trust that HardieWrap is the best option for Colorado weather elements such as snow and ice, extreme temperatures, and baking sun. Compared to other products on the market, James Hardie Hardie Wrap outperforms in both water resistance and tear resistance.

Bellwether also believes that high-quality products work best when used alongside other high-quality products, and we trust HardieWrap to perform at its peak when finished with Hardie Weather Barrier pro-flashing, flex flashing, and seam tape. Consistent materials and close attention to James Hardie’s best practices guarantees that a Bellwether moisture management system will protect your home on the inside, keeping you warm and dry, and protect your home on the outside, with resilient and long-lasting siding that stays beautiful.
