Why Your Building Envelope Matters
Why do building envelope systems matter? It’s your first defense against moisture intrusion, energy loss, and structural deterioration. A failing building envelope means water damage, mold growth, skyrocketing energy costs, and expensive repairs that shut down operations. For QSR operators, that’s lost revenue every single day.
Superior Building Systems for Lasting Performance
Superior building methods and systems matter for durability and longevity of modular buildings or for that matter any structure. Russo Modular uses proven systems in all aspects of building manufacturing. One of these systems is the use of rainscreen systems by Zip System building enclosures.
How Zip System Rainscreen Works
Our rainscreen system for framed wall assemblies is crucial to providing a drainage and ventilation gap between the sheathing and exterior cladding of Russo Modular buildings. Our standard rainscreen system uses Zip Insulated R Sheathing and Zip System Rainscreen mat to alleviate inward vapor drive and hydrostatic pressure – the driving force that permeates inferior rainscreen membranes causing water intrusion.
Performance That Exceeds Code Requirements
With proper space for air ventilation and correct installation of this Zip rainscreen system, Russo Modular exceeds most states’ energy codes. The system also achieves the ultimate Structural 1 rating for shear strength, continuous insulation requirements, built-in water and vapor protection, and thermal control.
The Russo Modular Advantage: Control at Every Stage
Russo Modular provides a controlled, scalable modular program. Our advanced building systems allow us to control building costs, control time management, control quality and control time to market.
Control. Precision. Performance.
