For Deck Installations: DeckWrap PowerBond® should be used as a flashing over the ledger board so that water will not enter the building. Use as a protective barrier to prevent rot, particularly between the decking and the joists.
For ACQ-Treated Lumber: 12” DeckWrap PowerBond® is recommended. ACQ-treated lumber can cause untreated metal components, such as hangers and other brackets, to corrode prematurely. DeckWrap PowerBond® provides a protective barrier between ACQ lumber and metal components.
For In-Ground Posts: Degradation of the wood is caused by fungal growth when the soil contacts the post. Even in a concrete base, fungi can degrade posts. Rot typically occurs up to six inches below grade. Fungal growth requires oxygen and moisture to thrive. DeckWrap PowerBond® acts as a barrier between the damp soil and the post preventing rot. Use 12” DeckWrap PowerBond® to protect posts.
