Tyvek Placement ?

Jan 02, 2007 1 Replies

Hello:



Is Tyvek normally placed between the house studs and the Plywood, or between the Plywood and the wood exterior clapboards ?



Does it matter ? Why ?



Thanks, B.


Robert,

Between the plywood sheathing and the clapboards. Tyvek will protect the home from air infiltration and wind blown water when done like this.
