No wall is waterproof. Today’s "tighter" buildings increase the risk of moisture and mold problems that rainscreen systems greatly reduce by enabling moisture to swiftly exit the building envelope. Municipalities are increasingly requiring fire-rated walls for multi-story residential structures. Fire-rated rainscreens are inexpensive insurance to mitigate the risk of wall failure and meet stringent building codes.
