STO GUARD® RECIEVES ICC CODE EVALUATION APPROVAL
ATLANTA, – (May 12, 2006) -- Sto Guard, a spray-on waterproofing, air barrier from Sto Corp., has received ICC Code recognition as a weather-resistive barrier. The code recognition permits the use of Sto Guard beneath most claddings. The report is ESR-1233 and is available at www.stocorp.com or www.icc-es.org. It is under Thermal and Moisture Protection Division 07, Section 07280, Water-resistive Barriers.
“This is a big accomplishment for Sto Guard, and really shows what an industry leader Sto Guard is in the air barrier market,” said Lisa Petsko, Sto Product Manager.
Sto Guard is a breathable, spray-on waterproofing, air barrier, providing superior protection against air and moisture intrusion in a variety of applications. Sto Guard can be used underneath brick, wood, vinyl, cement siding, cement stucco (with an additional layer of felt paper, or other bond breaker), and Sto Exterior Insulation and Finish Systems.
Problems that can occur because of air leakage and condensation are minimized because Sto Guard is an effective and economical means of controlling moisture in wall assemblies. By constructing an airtight building envelope the risk of moisture problems – decay, corrosion, loss of insulation value, mold growth and IAQ (Indoor Air Quality) – may be minimized.
