R-Guard Installation Detail
Pipe or Mechanical Penetrations
metal studs with gypsum sheathing/OSB sheathing/plywood
1.
Mechanically secure loose penetrations at the interior of the wall before detailing. Install non-gassing polyethylene foam backer rod backed by spray foam around electrical fixtures, conduit or plumbing to form a back dam.
2.
Apply FastFlash or Joint & Seam Filler around the wall penetration at a minimum thickness of 12 mils (FastFlash) or 20 mils (Joint & seam Filler). Use a dry trowel or spatula to tool and seal the joint. Create a joint profile that directs bulk water away from the opening.
3.
Provide a minimum 1" overlap of FastFlash or Joint & Seam Filler with the selected PROSOCO primary air and water resistive barrier.
