RE: Siding condition
To Whom it may concern,
ln regards to concerns over the siding condition at the residence at 16 St. Finnbar Farms Rd, please refer
to the detail on page N7O2 of the permit set. The wood siding was intended to be a "rain-screen" type
condition implying that the wood is there to protect the wall underlayment. ln this case, while the
specified drain mat was not used, the wall underlayment of 30# felt over the water proofed and taped Zip
panel should be sufficient to protect the building if installed correctly. The siding is there to protect the
water proofing and does not in itself need to be sealed in a traditional manner (i.e. battens or similar).
Please let me know if you have any questions or require additional information.
Thank you,
