1 Perhaps you ve never worried about what s underneath your shingles and siding.

3 We think you never should. That s because ZIP System roof and wall sheathing can give your home a second line of defense. With ZIP System technology, what stands between your home s exterior and interior can help prevent many types of water and weather-related problems. Far sturdier than conventional roofing felt and housewrap, the ZIP System panels combine a solid wood panel and protective barrier all in one. Between panels, special ZIP System TM tape keeps the protective surface seamless. The result is a complete system that won t tear or blow off during construction and continues to protect your home after construction is done. Plus it s backed by our exclusive limited 15-year system and 30-year panel warranty 1. So be sure to tell your builder you want the additional protection of ZIP System roof and wall products superior technology.

4 ZIP System Roof Sheathing Roof System Basics What s underneath your shingles is just as important as the shingles themselves. Most roofs are built with wood panels and then covered with some type of moisture-resistant barrier such as roofing felt. ZIP System roof sheathing, however, improves on this conventional construction. The ZIP System panel combines a wood panel and moisture barrier all in one so your roof system is inherently resistant to moisture. Between panels, water-resistant ZIP System tape is used to complete the system. ZIP System Roof Sheathing ZIP System roof panels ZIP System tape seam shingles Traditional Roof System structural wood panels water-resistant felt paper shingles Benefits of ZIP System Roof Sheathing Custom Look ZIP System panels are full half-inch panels that are thick and strong contributing to a smooth roof line and allowing shingles to lay flat. Water Resistance ZIP System roof sheathing has passed the Wind Driven Rain Test, with results that surpass the strictest of standards set by Florida s Dade and Broward counties. This means if shingles blow off, you are provided better leak protection than with standard roof felt. Durability ZIP System roof panels with built-in moisture barrier and ZIP System tape create a reliable roof system. Unlike roof felt and other underlayments, the ZIP System roof sheathing can t rip or blow off during construction, providing better protection for your roof. Proven Performance Recognized by residential building codes, ZIP System roof sheathing has undergone and passed extensive performance testing for water resistance, water penetration and wind-driven rain. Peace of Mind Knowing it s backed by an exclusive limited 15-year system and 30-year panel warranty 1 you can count on a ZIP System roof sheathing to last. *Limitations and restrictions apply visit huberwood.com for details. Don t just accept the usual, ask your builder for the ZIP System. Visit zipsystem.com for more information.

5 ZIP System Wall Sheathing Wall System Basics What s underneath your siding is just as important as the siding itself. Most exterior walls are built with wood panels and then covered with some type of water-resistive barrier such as housewrap. ZIP System wall sheathing, however, improves on this conventional construction. The ZIP System wall sheathing combines a wood panel and water-resistive barrier all in one. The result is a water-resistant surface with nothing that can tear or blow off during construction. Between panels, water-resistant ZIP System tape is used to complete the system. ZIP System Wall Sheathing siding ZIP System tape seam ZIP System wall panels wall stud Traditional Wall System siding water-resistive barrier structural wood panels wall stud HOUSEWRAP HOU SEWRAP HOUSEW U SEWRAP HOUSEWRAP Benefits of ZIP System Wall Sheathing Durability ZIP System panels with water-resistive barrier and tape won t blow off or tear like many housewrap products do during construction. ZIP System wall sheathing provides protection for your walls after your home is complete. Energy Efficiency ZIP System wall sheathing and tape provide a continuous air barrier to limit air leakage through walls for greater comfort and energy efficiency. Water Resistance for Walls As a code recognized water-resistive barrier, ZIP System wall sheathing protects your walls from water that may pass through your wall coverings. Proven Performance Recognized by residential building codes, ZIP System wall sheathing has undergone and passed extensive performance testing for water resistance, water penetration and wind-driven rain. Peace of Mind Knowing it s backed by an exclusive limited 15-year system and 30-year panel warranty 1 means you can count on a ZIP System wall sheathing to last. Using ZIP System tape can help reduce air leaks as recommended by the Seal and Insulate with ENERGY STAR effort. *Limitations and restrictions apply visit huberwood.com for details.
