Room Over Garage: Siding
A better mouse trap: EASY header wrap installation for room over garage.
Logistics of header wrap installation:
The standard way: it’s complicated
Header wrap
is compromised when Jack-rafters are nailed onto the rims
After framing, it is left there hanging and becomes damaged
Needs to be carefully detailed so the spray-in-place foam will create the air-seal
You have to cut away some of the wrap to get at the underside of the joists
The better way: it’s easy
Header wrap
is wrapped around
sub-floor only
This seals the leakage area between the sub-floor and bottom wall plate
This doesn’t interfere with fastening rafters
A simplified process. This system works!
