How to Get the Most out of Air-Shield SMP

It’s no surprise that having an efficient air and liquid moisture barrier is an important part of the building envelope, but the unique features AIR-SHIELD SMP offers to get the job done may have you rethinking the entire air barrier process. AIR-SHIELD SMP is W. R. MEADOWS’ first and only sheet membrane air and moisture barrier that allows vapor transmission, offering a highly flexible, controlled thickness membrane application option that is also vapor permeable. AIR-SHIELD SMP also uniquely features the ability to self-adhere to the substrate without the use of a primer, saving time and money by removing this additional step.

AIR-SHIELD SMP allows for a single-step installation that is convenient and efficient, but like all construction products, the proper application is imperative to achieve maximum product performance. With this in mind, several CAD details have been created and are available to view and download through our website that illustrate a variety of AIR-SHIELD SMP application scenarios to aid in guiding the correct installation process. Detailed installation guidelines are also available to view, download, and print, to further assist with maximizing the impressive benefits of AIR-SHIELD SMP.

If you have any questions about our AIR-SHIELD line of air barriers, or if your set of circumstances is different than what our currently available CAD details offer, please contact our Technical Services team for assistance, or click below.
