PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The 15 N Elizabeth Case Study in Chicago, IL, is a notable construction project that has embraced the advantages of WrapShield SA from VaproShield. This multi-family, five-story condominium building stands as a testament to modern construction technology, and the choice of WrapShield SA underscores the product's exceptional benefits.
One of the primary benefits of WrapShield SA is its superior moisture management capabilities. In a city like Chicago, known for its diverse weather conditions, protection against moisture infiltration is paramount. WrapShield SA effectively acts as a secondary weather barrier, preventing bulk water intrusion and helping to ensure the long-term durability of the building's envelope.
When installed as a continuous air barrier, WrapShield SA minimizes the risk of air leakage, which will save energy for the life of the building, reducing costs for owners and occupants. This not only enhances the comfort of residents but also aligns with sustainable building practices, making the 15 N Elizabeth Case Study a prime example of how WrapShield SA can improve construction projects in urban environments like Chicago.
