Rainscreen siding

Rainscreen siding is a building exterior system designed to protect the structure from water damage. It features an outer layer of durable siding material, a space or vented cavity behind it, and an insulation or framing layer underneath. This gap allows any water that gets past the outer layer to drain or dry out, preventing moisture from reaching the building’s core. As a result, rainscreen siding enhances durability, maintains insulation effectiveness, and reduces risk of mold or structural damage, making buildings more resilient to weather exposure while maintaining a clean, attractive appearance.
