Installation Method (Existing Walls)

1. ESP Low-E Housewrap is installed over exterior wall

sheathing, make sure reflective side faces out: foil flange

faces down.

2. Determine width of ESP Low-E HouseWrap being used

( 4’,5’, 6’) for initial wrap ( lowest point of wall surface )

3. Measure from sill plate up the wall, mark wall

at level of determined width less 1”

i.e. 5’ ESP Low-E HouseWrap mark at 59”

4. Snap chalkline around perimeter

5. Starting at the corner of the preferred exterior wall

unroll ESP Low-E Housewrap in a horizontal manner.

Fasten using corrosion resistant staples having

minimum 1” wide crown, corrosion resistant nails

having minimum 3/8” heads or corrosion resistant

nails having minimum 1” diameter plastic heads.

Fasteners to be spaced a maximum of 16” both

vertically and horizontally.

6. When rolling ESP Low-E Housewrap over door and

window openings: If windows and doors have been set,

trim ESP Low-E HouseWrap as close to window or

door opening as possible and perform detailing as

per door / window manufacturer and or code

standards.

7. The bottom side of the ESP Low-E Housewrap should

extend over sill plate by minimum 1”.

8. When applying second horizontal run of ESP Low-E

Housewrap butt foam ends together allowing foil

flange to overlap 2”. Make certain foil flange is

to the outside to ensure water drainage plane

downward.

9.Tape all vertical and horizontal flange seam areas

with foil tape.

10. Continue method until ESP Low-E Housewrap covers

both top plates.

11. Use foil tape to repair areas that have been torn or

compromised.
