VAPOR BARRIER | BASEMENT WALL MOISTURE PROTECTION

Shields the living space from water vapor transmission

Grate Drain Low permeability vapor barrier in conjunction with the sealed Grate Drain system protects the basement wall against contributing extra moisture to the basement. Moisture can cause poor air quality, mold, mildew, fungus, odors, and damage to moisture sensitive equipment.

Performance & Choice

FinishShield - FinishShield is a 16mm cross-laminated vapor barrier that is Fire Retardant. It is the most economical vapor barrier and perfect if customers are going to install finished basement walls. Protects against moisture, mold, mildew, humidity, and potential wall leaks.

HD FinishShield - HD FinishShield is a 14mm, Fire Retardant wall vapor barrier. Recommended as a durable wall covering. It is perfect for basement walls where a customer may not finish right away, but would like the protection against moisture, mold, mildew, humidity, and potential wall leaks.

ThermalShield - Thermal Shield is a foil faced wall vapor barrier that has double layers of bubbles and true white poly wall vapor barrier on the back. It is the wall vapor barrier of choice for adding additional insulation reflecting indoor heat back into the basement space. Save energy and protect against moisture, mold, mildew, humidity, and potential wall leaks.

For best protection Grate Products recommends that all Grate Drain systems have a wall vapor barrier and Flexi-Flange also installed.
