A simple, effective solution for venting behind wood, hardboard & fiber cement siding.

Venting behind your siding is just as necessary and valuable as venting your attic.  Trapped moisture from driving rain or condensation can cause major problems.  Paint peels off, exterior sheathing gets wet, siding can warp and your house wrap becomes saturated.  SV-3 & SV-5 solves these problems with a minimum amount of work and expense.

Key Benefits

• Helps to prevent paint from peeling.
• SV-3 = 5 Sq. In. NFVA per lineal foot.
• 7/16" x 3" x 4' cross section.
• SV-5 = 8.5 Sq. In. NFVA per lineal foot.
• 3/4" x 3" x 4' cross section.
• Prevents moisture from being trapped behind the siding.
• Made from heat resistant polypropylene.
• Power nailable
