Features
and Benefits
- Prevents
blocked weep holes from mortar droppings and allows easy, rapid movement
of water to weep hole vents, so moisture doesn't build up in wall
cavities.
- Allows
air to move easily in and out of the cavity, encouraging the wall
to dry more rapidly and eliminating pressure differentials that can
force moisture into the cavity.
- Simply
stands in the collar joint or cavity without adhesives or fasteners,
so installation is fast and easy.
- Very
lightweight, so it's inexpensive and easy to transport, store and
handle, even on high scaffolding.
- Eliminates
the need for any other systems to deal with mortar droppings including
pea gravel, cotton wicks, and batter boards, so labor costs are reduced.
- Slightly
compressible to allow for cavity size variations, so installation
isn't held up while masons make costly field modifications.
- Eliminated
inexact design language such as "weep holes shall remain open", so
the designer takes control of responsibility for the wall’s success.
What The
Mortar Net Does for You
- Assures
that you will have the confidence of knowing if your cavity walls
are protected against blocked weep hole vents.
- Eliminates
the fear of the water damage that blocked weeps can cause to your
important jobs.
- Provides
insurance that water will be able to run freely to the weeps so your
cavity walls look and function better for the life of the building.
