Sealing Exterior Wall Penetrations:
Today’s homes can consist of well over
25 plumbing and electrical wall
penetrations breaching the building
envelope. The wall penetrations are
often the most overlooked step of the
building process in creating a complete
moisture barrier. In the past, caulking
was the most popular way of sealing
exterior penetrations, but time has
proven caulking may lose its bond and
break down, especially if applied
improperly, which can lead to moisture
intrusion.
