QUICK OVERVIEW

SlopeShield Diagram WebImage 01SlopeShield Plus SA is a self-adhering, water shedding, vapor-permeable roofing underlayment. It protects roof assembly materials by allowing vapor to pass through (breathable) while concurrently blocking liquid water and air - mitigating costly moisture damage and saving energy for the life of the building.A highly vapor permeable roofing underlayment Air Barrier (AB) material

Install SlopeShield Plus SA over mass timber roof deck/floor deck to protect it from moisture intrusion and construction damage.

SlopeShield Plus SA protects mass timber from bulk water intrusion and concurrently dries mass timber through moisture vapor diffusion.

Alternative protection such as taped splines will leak and less durable lower perm sheet goods offer little to no drying capacity resulting in water damage and mold.
