Application video for TERM® Sill Barrier
TERM® Sill Barrier
The subject of this video is the installation of TERM® Sill Barrier. Sill Barrier protects framing from moisture, air leaks, and termite penetration. Recommended design would use TERM® Flashing Barrier tied into TERM® Sill Barrier.
Proper construction requires pre-measuring the widths and lineal feet required. Concrete surface should be clean, smooth, and dry, and temperatures above freezing and rising. Prior to application of TERM® Sill Barrier, the area to be covered is primed. Installed Sill Barrier should be rolled, and any penetrations treated with TERM® Termite Sealant.
TERM® Barrier System
The TERM® Barrier System, built in during construction, blocks entry of termites and insects into the structure. TERM® Barriers consist of waterproofing membranes with a sealant which has been upgraded to act as a physical and non-chemical barrier to termites and insects.
100% of the ground level slab surface must be protected, because concrete joints, cracks and future cracks, plus other gaps, provide insect entry points. 100% horizontal protection can be provided by installing TERM® Underslab Barrier below the slab, OR on top of the slab using TERM® Sill Barrier tied into TERM® flooring underlayments. Special detailing materials (sealants, screens, and stone particles) are used to block entry at slab penetrations and drainage points.
Below grade foundation walls, with their joints and (future) cracks, must also be protected by TERM® Water|Termite Barrier.
Above ground, TERM® Barriers protect sill and flashing areas against moisture and insects.
TERM® Barrier System, when properly constructed as part of the building envelope, acts as a barrier to almost all pests. Because almost all pests are excluded over the life of the structure, the need for pesticide treatments should be greatly reduced.
