WRB Showdown: ZIP System vs. ForceField WRB vs. Tyvek Housewrap & More with Inventor Landus Bennet

Landus Bennet (https://WatsonSprings.com) did the famous 'Hurricane Test' on our home during construction (   • Hurricane Test for Badass Home Builders: 5...  ), and this time we're visiting his lab at Watson Springs to compare the performance of the Weather Resistant Barriers (WRBs) on the market today. We discuss Huber ZIP System, Georgia-Pacific ForceField, LP WeatherLogic, DuPont Tyvek, Typar and other housewraps, and full adhesive membranes like ProClima AdHero and Henry BlueSkin, along with fluid applied WRBs. Consult or train with Corbett and learn to tune any home's performance: https://BuildingPerformanceWorkshop.com Watch the first-ever TV series about the Science of Homes: https://HomeDiagnosis.tv Join our Patreon membership for exclusive access and behind-the-scenes discussions!   / homediagnosistv
