What is the difference between "Barrier EIFS" and "Water Managed EIFS"? Barrier EIFS is installed with the assumption that absolutely no moisture will penetrate the cladding. Unfortunately, the slightest opening in the cladding will allow moisture to enter. An example is a window or door that was improperly caulked. Once the moisture has entered, it cannot escape...the result is damaged substrate. Water Managed EIFS is installed with the assumption that water will penetrate the cladding. Subsequently, steps are taken during the installation to allow moisture to exit to the atmosphere. No moisture, no rot. Some companies offer only the Water Managed EIFS. However, the Barrier EIFS is still being installed in much of Acadiana. | ||||||||
