Nova Construction Innovation Award Winner
Field moisture or pH testing is not a requirement of Barrier One’s (PIA) for warranty consideration! If moisture testing is conducted, Barrier One warrants up to 100% RH (per ASTM F2170) and/or 25 lbs. (per ASTM F1869). Barrier One offers demonstrated value performance and protection against the deleterious effects of integral moisture redistribution.
